Integrity is built on the relentless pursuit of excellence, trust, responsibility and accountability. Architectural Builders has provided luxury home renovations with 5-Star service for over thirty years in Southwest Florida, including: Bonita Springs, Estero, Fort Myers, Naples, and Sanibel.
For three generations, the Gunder family has built more than homes – but a legacy of craftsmanship and excellence.
It all began with Lyndon Gunder, the father of current president Curt Gunder.
While Lyndon worked in advertising in Fort Wayne, Indiana, he aimed to remodel his and his wife’s first home in the 1950s. Based on the success of his remodel, a local resident asked if he would build a garage for them.
He said yes – and Architectural Builders was born.
In 1961, Lyndon and a partner developed a residential community called “Caribe Colony”. California architecture inspired Lyndon. He handled the design, sales, estimating, and construction of a 128-lot community, including a pool with clubhouse.
The community was a success, and the build requests kept growing, at one point Lyndon built fifty-five homes in one year.
As Lyndon’s career blossomed, his peers named him president of the Home Builders Association. He earned many awards and gained recognition as one of the most highly respected builders in Fort Wayne.
Decades after his retirement and passing, Lyndon’s name is still synonymous with high quality design and build.
The family-owned and operated company builds strong relationships with its clients and gives their projects 100% of our attention.
Architectural Builders specialize in custom kitchen renovations, bathrooms, and outdoor kitchens, in condos/homes throughout Naples, Bonita Springs, Fort Myers, and Sanibel. Their primary focus is the professional design and construction of custom homes and renovations from foundation to roofs. The Gunder’s pride themselves on their high customer service level and superior craftsmanship by listening to the clients’ needs and utilizing that information to add value and customization to every house they perform in. This adds value and everlasting impressions for years to come.
