About Glenn Forman

I’ve spent over 25 years designing homes on Kaua‘i — each one a reflection of place, purpose, and personal sanctuary. With a background in residential design, a lifetime in construction environments, and global insight from visiting over 90 countries, I bring a deep, seasoned eye to every detail.

As the founder of Design Kaua‘i and a licensed REALTOR Broker, I offer more than beautiful plans — I offer peace of mind, creative partnership, and design that honors your lifestyle and the land beneath it.

This work is personal to me. I believe your home should uplift you, reflect you, and hold you — now and for generations to come.

Ready to Begin?

You may already have ideas. Or maybe you simply know how you want it to feel.
Wherever you are, I’d be honored to help you take the next step.
