Polynesian Design, an interior design company specializing in Polynesian elements has recently launched its activities on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Led by principal designer Ma’ata Tukuafu, Polynesian Design is one of a kind in its representation of Polynesian decor for residential, commercial and special event projects. Her connections in the design world include numerous sources for furniture, floor coverings, window treatments, artwork and accessories.

Polynesian Design is unique in its offer to create elegance and simplicity in design, by preferring the usage of authentic Polynesian elements. Raised in both Hawaii and the Tongan Islands, Tukuafu is well versed in the nuances of the cultures.

Elements from Aotearoa (New Zealand), Hawaiian to Fiji and Samoa may be used in design for projects of any size. By drawing on a talented local pool of professionals, Polynesian Design creates elegant and refined interiors with authentic, meaningful symbols and motifs. Many of these symbols come from nature which may be carved into wood, doors or furniture, painted onto walls or accessories, or printed onto textiles or area rugs.

It is the goal of Polynesian Design to provide authentic Polynesian elements to projects and to mix these elements with existing traditional, transitional or modern design.

Polynesian Design can provide one-time consultations for your home, business or project, or continue a working relationship until a project’s end.

Available services include:

• New home design
  
• Renovations
• Updates on existing businesses
• Special events
