Kuʻu Home is a collection inspired by my home, the islands of Hawaiʻi. Being born and raised on the picturesque shores of Haleʻiwa, my admiration for the beauty that surrounded me began as a small child. Spending most of my teenage and adulthood years in a transient lifestyle, I had the opportunity to travel the world and set my eyes on sights I had only ever seen in movies. Moving back home to Hawaiʻi in 2020 proved to be the inspiration I needed to begin a swim brand that had been long spoken about but never realized. Deepening my knowledge of Hawaiian culture has been a source of inspiration not only in my designs, but in my lifestyle as well. Kuʻu Home was created for those who also call Hawai‘i their home.
