From collaborative idea sharing to customized solutions that create purposeful experiences, each of our projects begins with a personalized, people-centered approach.
Development/
We have a strong interest in working with others, sharing ideas, and customizing solutions specific to the task. Putting people first and staying true to place is at the core of our development approach.
Ready-made design standards never typify our projects; we view each property with a fresh appreciation of its surroundings and place in the community. Our projects are recognizable by the care taken to best serve the interests of everyone involved and deliver the best possible result.
Investment/
Since our founding in 1975, MacNaughton has nurtured longstanding relationships with clients and partners that have, in turn, generated multiple joint ventures.
From real estate and business operations to innovative start-ups and nonprofits, we invest where we can add value to benefit the community or where there is an alignment of vision and values.
Some of our investments have included a Hawaii-based insurance company providing hurricane protection to island families, an affordable rental apartment complex opening up much-needed residential housing, and a jewel Waikiki hotel in need of renovation.
