Kō'ula is an example of how form suggests and shapes function. The kinetic quality of the exterior hints at what the interior reveals. Glimpse through the floor-to-ceiling windows, each of one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes features an open kitchen that flows into the living and dining areas. Custom light and dark cabinetry, wood flooring and stone palettes perfectly compliment the suite of Miele kitchen appliances. Everything about the residences, down to the bespoke bronze-accented vanities, encourages artful living.

The life-enriching qualities that a park brings to an urban setting are understood around the world. Victoria Ward Park, at the heart of Ward Village, is no exception. Reintroducing green space is a critical element of the Village’s Master Plan and, like the extensively landscaped pedestrian walkways, the park will bring the natural world into this South Shore community.

The refuge, planted with a number of native species, extends from the top of Ward Village all the way down to the water. On its periphery are a range of shops and restaurants that provide worthwhile destinations for a bicycle ride, or a lazy afternoon stroll.

At 1.5 acres, the park is designed to provide a place for solitude as well as a focal point for the community to gather and relationships to form. This is all part of Ward Village’s Master Plan–one that starts not with buildings on an architectural scale, but with people on a human scale. Its goal–how to best meet the needs of body and mind by creating a space where happiness grows.

The amenities at Ko'ula will be sure to blow your socks off. Entertaining friends and family in Hawaii is engrained in our culture.

If you're not yet familiar with Ward Village then you're in for a treat. Howard Hughes is creating a masterplan live, work, play community with the most walkable streets in Kakaako. Restaurants, shops, bars, and boutiques will feature along the treelined streets providing a New York City feel in an oceanside community. The brand new Whole Foods Market, the largest in the state, will be a hub for the community along with the 3 acre central plaza that will be adjacent to Ko'ula.
