Erik Tremain, Tremain Design

Erik’s precise, clean design reflects his architectural design philosophy: A pure conceptual approach that is then carefully edited through innovative thinking, critical thinking, and collaboration. He says, “It is my goal to influence the world of architecture through technology and a constant feedback loop between form, function, and person. By effectively engaging technological developments, both in the virtual and in the actual, the possibilities of coordination, design, and material technologies can have limitless potential.”

His Shell Pavilion home at Hualalai Resort on the Kona-Kohala Coast was featured in the December 2016 issue of Architect Magazine and the February 2017 issue of At Home magazine. He most recently completed a conceptual design for the “Village House” at Mauna Kea Resort in August 2019. tremain-design.com; 808.640.1458.
