The Remodeling Specialists
Breathing new life into an 80s-era kitchen, ZCI removed the dividing wall to craft a seamless open-concept layout. This smart redesign not only maximizes natural light and flow but also carves out generous space for dining—turning a cramped, dated space into a welcoming heart of the home.
This larger-than-life bronze monument celebrates paniolo legend Ikua Purdy, the Hawaiian cowboy who claimed the 1908 World Steer Roping Championship in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Commissioned by the Paniolo Preservation Society and sculpted by Fred Fellows, the 27-foot-long, 65-ton statue depicts Purdy in action roping a steer. ZCI assisted in its 2006 relocation to a prominent highway-adjacent site at Parker Ranch Center, ensuring this symbol of Big Island pride remains a landmark for generations.

A true showcase of functional island living for kumu hula Nani Lim-Yap and family.
