Lorraine and I want to thank you for the unbelievably beautiful home you designed for us. I have been building for over 40 years and have worked with dozens of architects during my career building thousands of homes.   I can honestly say you are one of the best architects I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Your talent, creativity and patience made the experience wonderful and fun. The process you guided us through created a beautiful home.  The one quality of yours that impressed us the most was your ability to listen to what we wanted, truly hear us, and then put it to paper. Your suggestions along the way added a special touch to the design that we never would have thought of. I have had so many strangers stop to look at our home and take pictures. Thank you for making our home a masterpiece that we are so proud of. It was an absolute pleasure getting to know you and working with you.   I would highly recommend you to anyone wanting to work with a top-notch person. I wish you success as you continue to make your client’s dreams come true.

In our role as a General Contractor, we have had the pleasure of working with Steven Jallad to develop some of the most sought-after homes in Naples, Florida.  His designs have been and continue to be coveted throughout Southwest Florida and beyond. Under his design guidance with MHK Architecture, the firm became synonymous with Old Naples Architecture and his influence is everywhere here. He has penned multiple properties for our shared clients and it has always been a pleasure to work with Steven from initial concept right through to final completion. We have also had the pleasure to work with Steven to design and produce many large speculative residences in Old Naples and all of the projects he has designed sold prior to completion based on the strength of his architectural work.  It's also worth noting that while my firm has working relationships with many architects in SWFL, when it came time to design my personal residence – I chose Steven to handle the project. On a more personal note, Steven's skill set lies not just in creating beautiful and well-designed homes but also in being able to work well with and bring together clients, builders, and vendors to bring his bespoke designs to fruition. Steven’s resume of work speaks for itself, his personal ethic is extremely professional, and it has been an honor to work with him over the last decade.

T. Jerulle Construction LLC has had the pleasure of working with Steven on countless custom home projects, from extremely difficult multi-story beach front homes to simple single story golf course homes. I have always found his site planning and his home designs to be well thought out with great attention to detail. Meeting the HOA and building department approval seemed easy. Steven also has the ability to maintain his clients’ desires while keeping in mind that the contractor has to actually build the home.  He has proven himself to be very responsive when questions do arise and works well with us as a custom home builder to bring our respective clients dream homes to a successful reality.

Steven & I have completed many one of a kind design-build projects together over the past 20 years.  During this time I have come to admire his ability to manage all parts of the planning and building process as he is well versed in many different types of construction. Besides his obvious creativity, I truly value his attention to detail, as well as his ability to utilize correct proportions and well placed shadow lines.  He has been instrumental in dealing with many different municipalities, giving thoughtful and articulate Design and Review presentations, no matter how extensive. He has excellent communication skills and the ability to explain his thought process clearly. He has always been open to integrating others ideas in his designs, and is willing to be assertive to get the results the client wants. He has proven to be a great trouble-shooter and problem solver. His willingness to be available is much appreciated, and he has always been timely and reliable with his work. Steven has always been a delight to work with, is a genuinely great human, and I wholeheartedly recommend him.

I have had the opportunity to work with Steven for over eight years through many different phases of my life and professional career.  Steven was my architect with my personal home, as a developer of spec homes and now as an owner of an interior design firm.  Through all of these phases of designing multiple homes every year Steven was extremely creative, responsive, patient and professional.  Steven always carefully listened and incorporated my vision while presenting missed opportunities to take each home to a far superior design masterpiece that always stands out from others in the community.  I look forward to working with Steven for many years to come.

I have been a developer/general contractor in Naples FL for 40 years specializing in high-end residential development and worked with many different architects . Steven Jallad is easily one of the most talented, creative and capable individuals I have had the pleasure of working with. I recommend him to anyone looking to design a residential or commercial project of significance.

Steven Jallad orchestrated a complete remodeling of my 1940's cottage in Naples, FL.   This process was exciting as well as emotional.  He was more than patient and always encouraged me to state my wishes.  Needless to say, his professional experience and expertise made my dream come true.    Anyone would be more than lucky to work with him.  I would do it all over again.  Having Steven through the whole process was a giant gift.

My wife and I had never built a house before, and we were daunted with all the choices and decisions that went with every step of the process.  We originally started with another architect to do the first concept, but then brought Steven on board along with our builder. We are very glad we did. Steven was a pleasure to work with at all steps of the process, and would listen carefully to our ideas and implement the changes perfectly while always keeping an eye on the overall project vision. He also collaborated well with the builder, so the two of them would refine the design and present us with final choices, thereby reducing the amount of oversight we needed to do. His steady work really helped move the project along on time and on budget, and we are thrilled with the end result.

Becky and I sincerely appreciate your vision and patience through the several years of developing one of the most difficult, challenging and beautiful sites in San Miguel County.
