Walker Warner Architects together with Stone Interiors, have completed Hale Nukumoi, a contemporary beach house in Kauai, Hawaii, that has an open and casual floor plan.

Located right next to a public beach, the house makes use of oversized sliding doors and a custom rain screen that close the house when desired for privacy.

The architects also worked with landscape architect Ron Lutsko to create a welcoming atmosphere for the home. One of the details they designed was a copper mesh rain curtain that creates a layer of privacy on the park side of the home, manages run-off rainwater from the roof and acts as a fountain and rain feature.

The path leads from the street to the open main living and dining area. When the sliding doors are open, you can see water views.

Inside the open room, there’s a custom couch design that fits in one end of the room. Light sand colored walls, wood and grey furniture create a relaxed and comfortable space.

Behind the living room is the dining room. A wood table is surrounded by ten dining chairs, perfect for when the large family vacation together.
