**★ — rskibell, July 2020**

> I am writing to complain about my horrendous experience working with David Stocker of the firm Stocker, Hoesterey Montenegro. We hired him over five years ago and spent well over six figures to build a 6,000 square foot home. In the middle of this process he stated, "I'm no longer feeling your house" and walked off the job. He abandoned us in the middle of building our home; knowing full well that it would be near impossible to find another architect to assume the project at this stage.
>
> Not only was it incredibly unprofessional behavior; but it was detrimental to the completion of our home and caused both significant delays as well as additional money we had to spend.  I would highly discourage anyone from hiring him as it was a total nightmare and the worst experience.

**★★★★★ — Coats Homes, May 2016**

> We have worked with David and the Stocker Hoesterey Montenegro team on several projects and we are consistently blown away by their work. Our clients are always very pleased, which is always our end goal. Their professionalism, creativity, attention to detail and execution have given them a well-earned reputation. We love working with them and look forward to doing so in the future.

**★★★★★ — Wim Bens, March 2016**

> SHM has been great to work with. They take a unique and custom approach to every project and are helping us build our dream home. Their attention to detail is outstanding and their staff is resourceful and talented.

**★★★★★ — Rosewood Custom Builders, Dec. 2014**

> We have had the pleasure of building several homes with SHM Architects (including my personal home!). David Mark and Enrique are true professionals who bring passion and many years experience to the design table. Throughout the process of building, they are extremely responsive to questions and make site visits to keep the project efficiently on track. I HIGHLY recommend Stocker Hoesterey Montenegro for anyone seeking true perfection in their home design.

**★★★★★ — newmanpalomar, Oct. 2013**

> We've been working with the SHMArchitects for the past year and the experience has been exceptional.  David Stocker has been a pleasure to work with and the entire team is stellar.  Most importantly, the design of our home is exactly what we were looking for.  I highly recommend SHM.

**★★★★★ — The Garden Design Studio, Oct. 2013**

> I have worked with David Stocker on several projects over the years and am inspired by the level of design, style and craft that he brings to his work.  He's great with his clients and delivers a wonderful home and environment to them.  I personally love the style of his work - the clean lines, the appropriate sense of scale and the warmth of the interiors.  I enjoy working with him and his entire team.

**★★★★★ — TATUM BROWN CUSTOM HOMES, June 2013**

> Our team has had the privilege of partnering with SHM on multiple projects, including several that are currently being built.  The SHM team -- led by David Stocker, Mark Hoesterey and Enrique Montengro -- takes creativity to a whole new level with every house they design by never approaching two projects the same.  Their ability to take in the environment surrounding a home and maximize it is remarkable, resulting in homes that showcase the properties they live on.  We are quick to refer new clients to SHM because we know the high-quality of their end-product.  Each architect brings a unique perspective to the projects they lead, and their team is always professional and helpful.  We truly enjoy partnering with them to bring their visions to life.
