Java Island Boy · by Yonathan Mickelsen

A creator working between Java and Hawaiʻi.

I lead marketing for a multi-brand hospitality group in Hawaiʻi, and build things on the side — parks, villas, web apps, print, photos. This is where they live together.

Bandung, Indonesia · 2023

A worn wooden structure reborn as a bright, sun-washed retreat. Moroccan-inspired surfaces, soft textures, private pool. One of five spaces I helped design and open under Kala Cabin.
