Whether it’s a historic colonial near the Green or a waterfront new build, our team transforms each space into a functional, stylish reflection of the people who live there.
We used the Jonathans to make our dream of a kitchen/pantry make over a reality. His expertise in taking our whole first floor to a new level is beyond amazing. I can’t wait to see what he does with our basement makeover!

Choosing the right interior designer means finding a partner who can translate your daily routines into spaces that feel elevated, functional, and entirely your own. That’s why our process is centered on close designer-client collaboration from the first conversation to final install.
We begin by getting to know your world. What makes you feel calm? What frustrates you? What does “home” mean to you, really? These insights shape every decision that follows.
Then we create immersive 3D renderings so you can see your future space before construction begins. It’s a collaborative, hands-on way to refine the vision and move forward with confidence.
Once the design is approved, we handle execution with precision. From managing trades to tracking timelines and overseeing every finish, we take care of the details while keeping you informed at every step.
Every project is shaped by your lifestyle, your needs, and how you want to feel in your space. Our job is to guide, interpret, and deliver something that’s not just beautiful but built to live in.
With studios in New Haven, Darien, and Framingham, we work with clients across New England. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, high-touch interior designer in Milford, CT, you’re in the right place.
Jonathan Gordon founded Design by the Jonathans in 2014 with a mission to make original, livable design accessible to busy people. Since then, we’ve grown into a nationally recognized design firm, known for interiors that reflect the individuality of every client and the character of every location.
Every project blends thoughtful planning with technical precision and clear communication. Our design process is collaborative, visual, and tailored to you.
We’re here to help—inquire here.
Our process is detailed and collaborative, but always tailored to fit each client’s needs. We start with an exploratory call to walk you through the full scope of what to expect—there’s more nuance than we can cover here. From there, we schedule an in-person or virtual consultation, depending on what works best for you. Once aligned, we move into the design phase and begin shaping your vision.
We ask clients to gather images of spaces they love and, more importantly, we ask why they love them. That context helps us understand your style on a deeper level. We also ask focused, sometimes unexpected questions to uncover what makes a space feel right to you.
The sooner, the better. Whether you’re furnishing a single room or starting from the ground up, having a designer involved early helps avoid costly missteps and ensures your space works holistically. The more time we have to collaborate, the more thoughtful and cohesive the results will be.
Fees vary depending on the project. Many clients work with a flat fee based on the space and scope, while others choose hourly billing. We tailor the approach to fit your project and budget.
Jonathan was absolutely wonderful to work with. He gave us brilliant ideas, worked tirelessly, and was always open to listening to what our vision was. The end product was a bathroom that was everything we wanted and more.
