OUR STORY & VISION

Shawn Hunter

Principal, Director of Design, Licensed General Contractor

The Definition of Experience is,

: direct observation of or participation in events as a basis of knowledge

: the fact or state of having been affected by or gained knowledge through direct observation or participation.

The wonderful experience I have gained over the past 30 years is vast. It covers 3 continents, 6 countries, from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast of Canada and covered 43 of 50 states. I have waked through history on the Great Wall of China, had lunch on the beaches of the South China Sea. My first exposure to caviar was on the bow of a Cargo ship on the Baltic Sea. I have explored ancient cities in central Mexico, ridden commercial fishing ships in the Gulf of California, and captained a catamaran on the Pacific ocean off the coast of Baha California. I have hiked the Adirondacks and Catskills in the Northeast, The Rockies in the Northwest and Red Rocks of the Catalina’s in the deserts of Arizona. I have kayaked the great Colorado River, the St Lawrence sea way, and the whale filled Chanel’s off the coast of Vancouver island.

Experience as a basis of knowledge. I have worked on thousands of projects, from builing on the Northern Lakes of Maine, Shores of Connecticut, Mountains of upstate New York to the Mountains of Colorado, wine country of California, and the high desert of Arizona, I've built all shapes, sizes, styles of Architecture. Specialized and focused on the traditional methods of building structures using natural material, Log walls, heavy Timber Frame, and sustainable materials. Specialized and focused on Custom Designed Homes, high quality materials and finishes. Specialized and focused on remote, scenic, spectacular primary, second and vacation, luxury homes.

The Definition of Luxury is,

: a condition of abundance or great ease and comfort

Let our Experience create your Luxury Destination.

When I started Destination Luxury Homes I was focused on building timber homes/cabins, log homes/cabins, and custom homes in any US locations that were only limited to our customers minds. Since then we have expanded to remodeling, maintenance, repairs for any type of home in Tucson, PineTop, Oro Valley, Marana, Foothills, Saddlebrooke, Glendale, Scottsdale, Tempe, pretty much all of Arizona.
Building and planning a home is definitely done better with a team, and I have a great one! The home architecture & design is done by Gordon and I. The interior design is done by Lidda from Lidda Design and Jessica. Alongside with myself our builders who have years of experience in their own specialty from electric, tape & texture, molding, framing, concrete pouring, lumber artisan, and carpenters. We make sure your home is picture perfect and to your lliking!
