IT ALL BEGan WITH AN IDEA…
Or in our case, a Netflix show. Then, some crafty entrepreneurs decide to take that idea to the next level and start the first comprehensive Design + Build company specialized in bringing luxurious Fantasy Suites to decerning sex-positive individuals, couples, groups, and even companies catering to this clientele. There’s no lack of passion here.

Robert Krieger
CO-FOUNDER
Robert is a hands-on Co-Founder, serial entrepreneur, and real estate investor with over a decade of experience operating a high-end general contracting company that spans both residential & commercial sectors. As a leader and self-sufficient innovator, Robert is comfortable in any role, from navigating the obstacles of executive management to securing anchor bolts into foundational framework.
So, how did a happily married real estate man with two children and two furbabies launch the leading global high-end sex room company?
His people-first mindset has propelled Robert into the residential market, where he exercises his love for craftsman-quality construction and elevated design. For the past seven years, Robert has zeroed in on residential remodels. It was one of these remodels that led him, by happenstance, to complete the bulk of the projects featured in Season 1 of Netflix’s “How to Build a Sex Room”.
With his experience on the show and real estate foresight, Robert noticed a hole in the marketplace. Millions of homeowners and companies want to incorporate intimate spaces into their properties — but the choice of expert development & design firms is slim to none. Robert knew that his innate attention to detail and ability to build high-performance teams could fill this hole and make the development of intimate spaces a pleasurable experience for clients.

Mark Mueller
CO-FOUNDER
Mark is a marketing guru, problem-solver, creative-thinker and brings a quarter-century of experience leading cross-functional marketing teams and digital agencies. His portfolio touts iconic brands like Coca-Cola, General Motors, Playboy, and Hyatt Hotels where he was engaged to fuel global business growth and innovation.
When Robert initially pitched Fantasy Suites, it was clear that the two complimented each other perfectly. Shocker — Mark’s past corporate projects and time served in the Gulf War as a U.S. Army paratrooper didn’t make him an expert in the field of intimate spaces. But it did make him an expert on team building, outside-the-box thinking, and an intimate understanding of people.
Mark understood the forward momentum of today’s culture going toward a sex-positive future. He saw not only the business proposition but also the chance to enrich the lives of individuals, couples, and groups who seek new erotic experiences. Mark joined the Fantasy Suites team as Co-Founder and began working side-by-side with Robert to build a flawless client experience and a world-class team of designers & developers to bring to market.

Mike Shayler
GENERAL CONTRACTOR
Many people recognize Mike in his trademark flannel work shirts as the Contractor Guy from the hit 2022 Netflix series “How to Build a Sex Room”, where he complimented the show’s designer perfectly. His job on the show was to bring erotic visions to life, while also contributing his playful and sparkling personality and construction know-how to the show.
Mike’s qualifications for that acclaimed role came from more than three decades of experience in the construction industry, which includes safety, carpentry, remodeling, metal fabrication, and welding for residential, commercial and government clients.
In his personal life, he is happily married with four amazing kids. In his sparse free time, he enjoys building hot rods and attending as many concerts as possible.
