Life moves easily between indoors and out at ‘Ilima and Melia in Honolulu’s Ward Village.

At ‘Ilima, our design brings a resort sensibility to everyday living, with direct views of Diamond Head.

From west to east, the lap pool, double-height lobby lounge, and casual dining area share a strong architectural axis, giving way to the more relaxed setting of the pool bar and infinity pool.

A signature “Dickey roof” shelters the swim-up bar—a nod to Charles Dickey, whose work helped inform our design and research precedents.

Project led by Johnny Cruz and Paul Whalen with Hernan Chebar, Luis Arturo Corzo, Mario Cruzate, and Ian Lauer in partnership with Howard Hughes Communities and Discovery Land Company

‘Ilima and Melia will offer resort-style living along the waterfront of the vibrant Ward Village community in Honolulu.

We designed these 33- and 35-story towers to maximize ocean and city views through thoughtfully arranged windows, balconies, and loggias grouped to create vertical neighborhoods.

Sculpted crowns with setback terraces echo the human scale of the street, while a shared podium offers world-class amenities, gardens, and a curated mix of retail and hospitality destinations that welcome both residents and the broader community.

Deep-blue lacquer walls and a warm silver ceiling in the amenity dining room at The Henry deliver a romantic ambience for memorable gatherings.

“The sheen of the lacquer’s finish elevates the dining space into something even more special, like a precious jewel box within the building,” says RAMSA Partner Michael Jones.

At the Guesthouse in Winnetka, views of the RAMSA-designed main house take center stage.

The kitchen features cottage green cabinetry and Arts and Crafts tile work.

With exposed beams and a north-facing French door opening up to an intimate patio, the living room is an ideal gathering space for visiting family and guests.

The primary bedroom is on the main floor, while upstairs is a loft-like bedroom.

Offering views of the main house, the upstairs bedroom features an alcove to accommodate the client’s grandchildren.

Throughout, textured shades of green reflect the verdant gardens that connect the house to the rest of the estate.

Design led by Randy Correll with Alexis Ryder and Nick Mingrone
