Steve and Rita Hollosi, designers of La Casa De Leon, were unmistakeably influenced by their vastly diverse backgrounds when developing this masterpiece. From their business endeavours, community involvement, European backgrounds and their joint belief in a strong sense of family we find this magnificent end result.

Steve and Rita were both born and raised in Western Europe, living in places such as Hungary, Romania, Israel, Italy, and France. It was in Hungary where Steve obtained his culinary education, going on to become a master in the field. He and his wife Rita strongly pursued the culinary arts and went on to own and operate a multimillion dollar gourmet restaurant, enticing the palates of local business patrons, celebrities, and United States Presidents alike. Steve and Rita had the honor of dining with professional athletes, state and local politicians, celebrities such as Art Connie, Catherine Hepburn, Paul Newman, and even President George Bush Sr. and first lady Barbara Bush.

After moving to Florida, Steve has become a prominent business man and contributor to the community. He has received high accolades and recognition in these areas. He is a member of a metropolitan Rotary Club and is avidly involved with several other programs and charities. Rita is also actively involved in the community and is a proud member of the Royal Dames society. She has assisted in the organization of numerous prestigious galas and charitable events the group has hosted. Rita also owned and operated a floral business for many years in which she solely created each of the custom designed floral arrangements.

The pairs artistic eye, creativity and rich European background are present in all they do, none of which fell short while designing La Casa De Leon. From hand-crafted cabinetry and opulent cast stone pilars to a state of the art thermador kitchen and game room complete with full wet bar, their sense of savvy is abounding. A strong family structure is quite obviously a facet of their lives when looking at the spacious common areas, theatre room, and grand airy kitchen. Their design allows for large gatherings, much like where many of Steve and Rita's family recall making heir most precious memories.

Steve and Rita are true artists in their own right. By pulling from all aspects of their lives and combining them beautifully, they created a grandiose masterpiece formally known as La Casa De Leon.
