Aloha!
We’re Anthony and Marivelle, the husband-and-wife team behind Designed With Aloha.
We started in 2016 by handcrafting “ALOHA” marquee letters, a bar, and a modular dance floor in our garage for our own wedding at Kualoa Ranch. Today, we operate out of three warehouses in Kāneʻohe alongside a dedicated local team. Our approach draws on Anthony’s background managing radiology IT systems across 22 West Coast hospitals, bringing technical expertise and careful planning to the creative work we do. As our family has grown, we’ve continued to work closely together, sharing ideas and solving problems throughout each build.
What We Do
Rentals
You can choose pieces from our rental collection, commission something custom, or bring both together in one event. Our custom work can begin with a single illuminated sign or extend to an entire venue. VIEW RENTAL INVENTORY
Fabrication
We use digital renderings to help you see the design before production and consider how lighting and guest movement will shape the space. In our Kāneʻohe workshop, we combine scenic carpentry with CNC routing, laser cutting, 3D printing, UV printing and more. VIEW FULL LIST
Installation
Our team carries the work through to installation, giving us a practical understanding of how each build will look and function at your venue. We are known for our punctuality and for quick setup and takedown times.
Applies full-color artwork directly to flat materials, using ultraviolet light to cure the ink as it prints. It brings detailed images and graphics onto rigid surfaces without a separate sticker or wrap.
UV Printing
(Silicone Edge Graphics) fabric stretches into a slim frame for smooth, nearly frameless backdrops and displays. Graphics are easily replaced for new events or branding.
SEG
Produces detailed, full-color graphics on flexible materials. It captures photography, gradients, and patterns at a scale suited to branded environments and large surface treatments.
Latex Printing
Uses a computer-guided tool to cut and carve rigid materials. It handles larger panels and thicker components, creating custom outlines, recessed details, and dimensional pieces for displays and installations.
CNC Routing
Turns digital designs into physical objects by building them layer by layer. It allows us to test proportions and fit, and produce custom details for larger builds.
3D Printing
Creates precise shapes and fine surface details. It’s well suited to intricate patterns, crisp lettering, and personalized designs, with consistent results across individual pieces or a coordinated collection.
Laser Cutting
Reusable modular systems with aluminum frames create custom booths, backdrops, and branded environments that can be reconfigured for different spaces and events.
beMatrix
Creates lettering and shapes from solid-color adhesive vinyl. Once the excess material is removed, only the design remains, allowing the surface beneath and around it to stay visible.
