THE FOUNDER

Meet the Founder

A resort pedigree, brought to the coast.

Joseph Hanna’s experience was shaped in Northern California’s wine country, guiding the creation of private estates within a distinguished luxury resort community.

Architecture, craftsmanship, and execution were held to an exacting standard—a discipline he now brings to JHD’s ground-up luxury estates in San Diego.

PRIVATE COMMISSION

Share your preferred location, your timing, and the estate you envision. Joseph will help establish the appropriate starting point, whether you own a site or are still considering the possibilities.
