"Aaron Shimizu is the rare architect who’s both design-minded and execution minded. We run Lanikai Homes (high-end renovations + design), and Aaron has been a key partner for us personally and professionally. He’s responsive, communicates clearly, and produces plans that builders can actually build from—no fluff, no confusion, no surprises. The biggest thing that sets Aaron apart is his deep knowledge of Honolulu DPP and permitting. He doesn’t just submit drawings, he knows how to navigate the system, anticipate issues before they become expensive problems, and help people get out of situations they didn’t even know they were in. We’ve seen homeowners buy a house and later discover unpermitted/nonconforming work that can lead to major headaches or fines. Aaron is a wizard at creating a clear path to get things legal and moving forward. If you want someone sharp, practical, and dependable—especially in Honolulu, Aaron is an easy recommendation."

Start by defining your goals and budget. Collect photos of rooms you love, jot down must-have features, and list what isn’t working in your current space. Share these details—and your target budget—during the first meeting. The clearer you are, the quicker a designer can translate your vision into a workable plan and keep costs in check.
Yes, working with an interior designer can help you save money. Designers prevent costly missteps, secure trade discounts on furniture and finishes, and coordinate the project so you don’t pay twice for the same work. Their upfront fee often pays for itself in avoided change orders, tighter timelines, and materials purchased at below-retail pricing.
A full interior design project wraps up in two to three months, on average, while a decorating job takes four to eight weeks. Timelines stretch if you add structural changes, custom millwork, or specialty materials, and unexpected shipping or permit delays can tack on extra days. Talk with your designer about project milestones and build in a little wiggle room.
Interview at least three pros whose portfolios match your style. Review their credentials and ask for references. During a face-to-face or virtual meeting, discuss your goals, budget, and timeline, and make sure their communication style and fee structure feel comfortable. The right designer combines technical know-how with a creative approach that clicks with you.
