UCHIYAMA ERSKINE ARCHITECTS LLC

Designs are shaped by listening to your
needs, aspirations, and the unique stories they bring.

OUR SERVICES

Based in Honolulu Hawaii, we provide design services for commercial, institutional, healthcare, hospitality, industrial, and utility-related projects. In addition to design, our team can also provide services for land use entitlements, regulatory approvals, bidding and procurement, and construction administration. With a strong presence throughout the state of Hawaii, our work draws on deep knowledge of local history to create culturally rich designs.

We also offer peripheral services such as feasibility studies, programming and space planning, architectural master planning and project management.

OUR MISSION

We begin the design process by listening closely to your ideas, translating them into a built form that aligns with your program, priorities, and expectations. The design continues to evolve through creativity, sensitivity, and synergy — producing architecture that is both distinctive and functional, while maintaining respect for our client’s vision. Together, we create thoughtful designs with careful attention to situational context, budget, and schedule.
