GRAHAM BUILDERS
Storage is another hot topic among families. Gra- ham Builders looks at stor- age management, adding individual family closets and drop-zones in the laundry, garage and mud rooms. These attractive hubs keep residences tidy and encour- age household members to respect boundaries — a vital consideration for a success- ful lifestyle.
Another common mul- tigenerational concern is the kitchen. For most, the kitchen is the hub of day- to-day living and one of the largest challenges of de- signing a multigenerational home. Honolulu’s building ordinances limits residen- tial homes to one kitchen and one wet bar per dwell- ing. However, when three or more nuclear families are living under one roof, a sin- gle kitchen is not enough.
Graham Builders’ solution to this common dilemma is its ohana kitchen.
“Think of this as a kitchen stadium, local style,” says Fujimoto. “This is a larger kitchen with multiple prep stations, sinks and appli- ances that allows multiple
families to prep, cook and eat separately, yet simulta- neously.”
Graham Builders has built a powerful reputation as the authority on multi- generational homes over its 32 years in business. The company was the first home construction company in Hawaii to have a certified aging-in-place specialist on staff. The company’s experi- ence and certifications led county and state agencies to seek advice from Graham Builders on best practices in
home design and construc- tion for the well-being of elders and physically chal- lenged individuals.
A leader in the design and construction of multi- generational homes and aging-in-place design, local company Graham Builders is the recipient of the Better Business Bureau of Hawaii
Torch Award for ethics in small business. Learn more about the basics of home remodeling and rebuilding at Graham Builders’ free, virtual Building Your Home for Life seminar from 9 to 11 a.m. on Saturday, July 9.
