Custom Gallery Walls

and home-design help

Small-scale design services with big everyday impact

The spaces your life unfolds in should feel good.

It starts with one simple belief:

They should make sense. They should meet your needs. They should exude your energy in a deeply validating way. From custom-curated, expertly sourced gallery walls—to design guidance that kindly shows decision fatigue the door—we’re here to create high-impact, head-turning spaces that understand you. Because your home is one thing above all others: yours.

Hi, I’m Gillian.

I’m here to help you create a home you love—and that loves you back.

I built GG Designs as a mom of two who believes that with so much out of our control (see: the skipped naps and sticky fingerprints of it all), bringing beauty and ease to the touch-points you interact with every single day can make a profound difference in your well-being.

I’m a writer and storyteller by trade, a born-designer and ruthless declutterer at heart, the person my friends call when they need a recommendation for anything from a paint color to a hostess gift—and deep-down just someone who’s always loved making sense and beauty out of the world around me.

Here, gallery walls are driven by your story, defined by fine details—and thoughtfully designed to pay proper homage to the people, places, and plot-points that have shaped your family.

A person's hand with jewelry resting on a table with a vintage gold frame mirror, a handwritten letter, a green-colored baby shoe shaped like a foot on a white plate, a few photographs, and a printed ticket for a galactic event. There are also some photos of a dog and a child.
A woman sitting at a bar or counter, looking at the camera. She has short, wavy reddish-brown hair and is wearing a black jacket with red accents. The background shows a rustic, cozy interior with wooden shelves and various objects.

The Post-It note that started it all. A coaster from your favorite dive bar from that night (you know the one). The lyric that means everything. And, yes, the photographs that are begging to live somewhere other than on a screen.

We specialize in turning a lifetime of core memories and cornerstone moments into a focal point that anchors your home—and pulls on your heartstrings—every time you lay eyes on it.

At its core, design is about connection.

Understanding your essence is the whole name of the game. Whether I’m sourcing relics from your favorite restaurants for your gallery wall or selecting materials for the home office of your dreams—my job isn’t just to design for you, it’s to understand you.

A background in journalism, a natural curiosity for the world around me, and an ear for what’s unspoken all allow me to dig deeper than surface-level aesthetics. Because what’s beautiful is a start—but what’s you is where the magic lies.
