He is an amazing architect and nice guy. He was attentive to client's needs but balanced with his expertise when my imagination ran wild. He was not a cookie-cutter architect and willing to look into innovative ways and incorporate trends and design elements. We turned our ranch home into a modern-transitional build. His suggestions on the mix of the brick, stone, and metal really brings out a modern flare. We received so many compliments and requests from strangers for taking pictures of our homes. I can't recommend this team enough for anyone who looks to build their dream home! **★★★★★ — Mike Muscat, Sept. 2018** > Our project is a gut renovation of an old house built in 1920. The JLS team is a class act and knows their stuff. They took our project from plan development to approval. A pleasure to work with and very responsive. The creativity and dedication around our project started from day 1. Special thanks to Joe, Lori, Mohammed and Anthony for their hard work. My wife and I highly recommend their team! **★★★★★ — cbitton, Feb. 2016** > I wanted to write a review for JLS Designs and to my surprise when I did my search, there was the home that he designed for me and my husband. Joe Sultana, the principal of this firm is a wonderful architect with great vision. Besides designing a beautiful home for us, he helped us with many decisions that had to be made on the project. > Our home was originally an expanded cape. We ended up with a gorgeous Mediterranean home that won a NYC award for design. > As in any major development problems arise. During excavation for the foundation we ran into a problem There was a boulder the size of a Volkswagen right on the edge. We called > Joe and he rushed to the project, resolved the problem and the project continued. > He is a true professional and a gentlemen! **★★★★★ — cdoum, Dec. 2015** > Mr Sultana, and his entire team at JLS Designs, exceeded my expectations in every dimension. His initial consultation was very accurate and eye opening. After special consideration I hired him and his team and it was the best decision I could have possibly made. My family and I are pleased beyond our expectations and we live in our beautiful home with love and peace. > CDoumazios- ## Selected projects - [Contemporary home - Belle Harbor](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-home-belle-harbor-pj-vj~6313609) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [French style - Whitestone, NY](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/french-style-whitestone-ny-pj-vj~6347600) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Mediterranean Style - Whitestone, NY](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mediterranean-style-whitestone-ny-pj-vj~6355349) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [Center Hall - Whitestone, NY](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/center-hall-whitestone-ny-pj-vj~6347597) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Farmhouse style - Whitestone, NY](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/farmhouse-style-whitestone-ny-pj-vj~6347592) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Center Hall Colonial - Whitestone, NY](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/center-hall-colonial-whitestone-ny-pj-vj~6347584) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Whitestone home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/whitestone-home-pj-vj~6347620) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Queens Architecture](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/queens-architecture-pj-vj~2551875) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 20 - Description: Various homes throughout Queens neighborhoods - [Lake Success Architecture](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-success-architecture-pj-vj~2551852) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Interiors](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/interiors-pj-vj~2551878) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 [See all 10 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/design-build-firms/jls-designs-architecture-and-planning-pc-pfvwus-pf~1761675799) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
