The architect and construction crew for HWDC.

Builders
Nalu Akinaka and his company, Akinaka Construction, remodeled HWDC to create a 5,000ʻ space including two large exhibit halls, 2 discovery rooms, one classroom, a video immersion room, a gift store, and family bathroom.
An awesome team to work with and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results!
“At Akinaka Construction, we’ve been helping the island of Maui bring their visions to life for over 25 years. As a family-owned business, we take the extra time to really understand what you’re looking for, creating a personalized design that truly fits your style. We love helping our community with all of their construction needs and getting to share our passions with you.”
