Trans-Pacific Design

Sue Moss, owner of Trans-Pacific Design and I, started talking as soon as our home was purchased. It was a total tear out; walls and flooring removed, bathrooms striped, kitchen removed and rearranged. We added Soffits, rewired the electrical with a low voltage Lutron System, repumbed the bathrooms and added an all new kitchen. Sue and team were great, even though we had to communicate from out if state. Their ideas and suggestions were in tune with our initial vision, they were tireless in bringing new elements and products to the project, while paying attention to every detail. The colors, textures and fabrics Sue helped us pick are exquisite, a talent most non professionals, including myself, do not possess. Our home is fitting of it's beautiful Hawaiian setting, "Thanks" to Sue and the team at Trans-Pacific Design.

Sue Moss began by helping us with a bathroom remodel and with every wise insight she gives us we think of more questions in other rooms. She listens well and knows how to climb into our heads and understand what we are trying to accomplish. She’s truly a find!

My company, SunChase Holdings, is developing a massive luxury residential/resort community on the Big Island of Hawaii and Trans Pacific was recommended to us by our Architect. We've worked with some of the best design professionals in the world and consider Susan and her team to be among them. Their work is brilliant, their execution is flawless, their professionalism is remarkable - however their integrity and commitment is what truly impresses us. Susan and her team are fabulously talented and responsive - but more important, they are people of meticulous character. We look forward to working with Trans pacific on future projects and highly recommend them.

Although I hadn’t worked with Trans‐Pacific Designs previously, I knew Sue Moss casually, and we would occasionally cross paths at our local farmers market. I had heard good things about Sue and her firm, so when we needed to bring in an interior designer for a project here in town, I decided to give her a call. From the very beginning, I knew this was the right choice. Sue and the staff at Trans-Pacific Designs are the real deal. From the selection and ordering of flooring materials to finishes and everything in between the process was organized, handled professionally and contributed to a successful project resulting in satisfied clients and an industry award of merit for the project genre. Successful projects need a good team of skilled professionals, and interior design services are a vital component of a successful project. I would encourage anyone undertaking a renovation or new construction project to give Trans‐Pacific Designs a call.

Our project started by removing everything in the condo to the bare walls and floors. All communications on the project were done on the computer. Sue was instrumental in giving us interim progress reports through her emails and updates. Trans-Pacific did the drawings, specs and budget...and kept everything on target. We were concerned about time and distance but it was not a problem! She was on top of everything. Using Houzz helped her see our preferences and we used it for most of the furniture ideas. We would not try this without Sue and her staff as we were 2500 miles away during the whole remodel.

We worked with Sue Moss on our house in Hawaii. She is absolutely amazing as she worked so well with both of us. She got who we are and what are tastes are and melded them together. We worked together to make just the best interior! She is amazing with color, putting things together and finding a vision so beautiful. I am forever grateful to Sue Moss!

We purchased a 1940s era cottage in the town of Waimea on the Big Island several years ago. The kitchen and bathrooms had been redone in the 80’s and not in a good way! As we lived on Oahu, we needed someone on the Big Island to work with our architect in the design process. Sue was recommended to us and after meeting her we found her to be very professional and adept in listening to what we wanted. She was able to guide us in the selection of furnishings and fixtures that updated our home while keeping the cottage feeling intact. One of the best things about working with Sue’s firm is that they were very efficient in keeping track of the progress of the project, meeting with the builder, locating and ordering what was needed and communicating with us regularly. I would definitely recommend her to others who are planning a home update project.

Sue and her company helped us find a great contractor, architect and helped to select most of the details for a kitchen we love. I can only say what I want but I really have no idea and Sue helped us in developing a vision to made everything come together. She was very efficient and really kept us abreast on the development each step of the way. I believe by finding an interior designer to remodel a kitchen was the way to go. She had concepts and modern ideas that I really liked. If I did it myself, I wouldnʻt have know where to start. She is really good and has a professional attitude but very friendly and open. I enjoyed the experience and look forward to working with her on the rest of the house.

Sue helped us with a lighting transformation project in several rooms. Due to a number of factors beyond everyone's control the project took longer than expected. Throughout the process, Sue and her team were responsive, positive and went above and beyond to keep us in the communications loop. The end result was vastly improved lighting and space ambience; could not be happier!

Sue Moss from Trans-Pacific Design did a wonderful job helping us with furniture and window treatments for our upcountry coffee plantation in Holualoa. Sue is a true professional and makes the design process enjoyable. Thanks to Sue's great design talent, we ended up with furniture we love, comfortable, easy going and yet elegant. Just perfect for what we envisioned. The team at Trans-Pacific Design did a great job and we would highly recommend their services!

Although my home is much simpler than the luxury projects Trans-Pacific Design is best known for, Sue helped me feel comfortable throughout the design process. We're about 1/3 of the way through the renovation and I'm so excited about how everything is coming together....could NEVER have done this without Sue and her team!

My husband and I worked with Sue on our Kitchen and Bathroom Since my husband is a contractor we had many ideas. Sue helped us incorporate our ideas into an award winning design. Both our kitchen and our master bathroom won awards and were featured in several magazines.
