Studio Kīpuka (by Ki Concepts LLC) is an award-winning Hawaiʻi-based landscape architecture and urban design studio focused on restoring ecological systems and uplifting cultural narratives through place-based design.

Named after a kīpuka—a remnant island of life spared by lava—our work centers on creating green spaces that act as ecological and cultural nodes in a sea of built environments.

A kīpuka can also mean a break in the clouds, a coral head in deep water, or a pause from the majority—a space of resilience, clarity, and reconnection. We strive to design these moments of renewal across all scales, weaving together the past and future to support thriving communities and landscapes.
