OUR STORY
-Since 2016
We dreamt up the concept of Aloha Modern over pau hana drinks wanting to tell the deep relevant stories of Hawaiʻi in fun ways. The ocean remains a place of refuge for us so it just made sense to create this ocean lifestyle company. As island people the ocean is what connects us with the rest of the world, our vision is to share a little bit of Hawaiʻi with every design.
Aloha Modern is not just a brand; it’s a celebration of the rich history, diverse traditions, and timeless wisdom that make Hawai‘i unique. Through our products, we aim to inspire a sense of aloha, fostering a global community that appreciates and honors the beauty of cultural diversity. Our mission is to share the essence of aloha through thoughtfully crafted products that seamlessly blend tradition with modernity. With a commitment to sustainability and respect for the cultural heritage of Hawai‘i, Aloha Modern is dedicated to creating authentic connections and lasting impressions.
Mālia and Reyn crossed paths while working on
various cultural projects that demanded a blend of
tradition and innovation. Recognizing a shared passion
for preserving and sharing the stories of Hawai‘i,
they envisioned a venture that could transcend the
boundaries of traditional preservation efforts. In their
collaboration, Aloha Modern was born—a Hawaiian
lifestyle company that serves as a testament to
their shared values. Grounded in Mālia’s extensive
experience in cultural planning and Reyn’s design
and production expertise, Aloha Modern became a
platform for thoughtfully crafted products that bridge
the gap between tradition and modernity. The products,
meticulously curated and designed, reflect the duo’s
dedication to ensuring that the mo‘olelo remains a
living, breathing part of Hawaiian identity.
