This stunning home elegantly mirrors its natural surroundings, weaving light and texture into its design. A serene koi pond welcomes you at the entrance, with a bridge leading to the single-level residence - seamlessly blending architecture with nature. Designed for French professional surfer Couzinet Jorgann, the home subtly integrates his passion for the ocean, from carefully curated surf-inspired décor to the surfboards that greet you upon arrival.
Using materials like wood, stucco, and sandstone, along with greenery and natural tones, creates a design that feels warm, balanced, and connected to its surroundings. Wood adds an organic touch, stucco provides a smooth, refined finish, and sandstone brings earthy character. Greenery softens the space, while natural hues enhance tranquillity, making the home feel inviting and effortlessly in tune with nature.
Location
Kauai, affectionately known as The Garden Isle, is one of Hawaii’s most breathtaking islands. Its lush, emerald landscape is adorned with diverse terrains—soaring cliffs, expansive plains, and everything in between.
Renowned for its world-class hiking trails and iconic appearances in countless films, Kauai offers endless opportunities for adventure and exploration.
Nestled along the stunning shores of Miloli‘i Beach, my client’s home is the perfect blend of a luxurious tropical retreat and a surfer’s paradise.

Sketches & Development
The design ensures clear, well-defined spaces for entertaining and relaxation, creating a perfect balance between social gatherings and personal retreats. Open and inviting entertainment areas encourage connection, while secluded spaces offer a peaceful escape to unwind and recharge. This distinction is essential, allowing the home to adapt to different needs. Whether hosting guests or enjoying the solitude. By thoughtfully separating these areas, the design enhances both functionality and comfort, making the home feel both vibrant and restorative.
