Since its inception in Jackson, Mississippi, over 25 years ago, Turner and Company( Turner) has distinguished itself through its passion for classical architectural design and construction. Specializing in custom home construction and the renovation of traditional architectural styles, Turner is focused on building in traditional neighborhood developments. The company prides itself on delivering lasting value and the highest levels of service, with honesty and integrity at the heart of all its projects.
“ I began my career in architecture and then earned a graduate degree in city and regional planning. While my education brought me into the built environment, I had no idea where it would lead! I founded Turner in 2000 as a small remodeling company – that’ s where my expertise and passion lay at the time. From remodeling I turned to design remodels, which inspired me to undertake new construction due to my interest in development. About 17 years ago, I bought an infill lot and executed a small, planned unit development, designing and building all the homes myself. My real foray into designbuild came through my own projects, which often were custom rather than spec homes. This journey allowed me to understand development, land use, and subdivision layout more deeply and creatively, as well as to design and build both townhouses and new construction,” begins David Turner, CEO.
Design-build philosophy
As the company evolved, it took on many large custom projects, including multimilliondollar houses. Nonetheless, the creative aspect of the work was always central for David, who consistently seeks to fulfill that need through design and development.
