You Have Found the Right Design Firm for Your New Home (or Remodel). Here is Why

Goldberg Design Group, Inc. (GDG) is a Design Firm that specializes only in custom homes.  We know what CUSTOM is and how to provide you with the expert design and detailing that makes your home truly yours. Where other firms let you struggle to manage the building, design, and selection process, GDG is able and ready to lead you from the earliest stages of lot selection and conceptual design all the way through to the completion of the home without having to hire and manage an entire team of consultants and designers on your own.  We listen intently to your dreams and ideas while bringing the latest in creative, innovative design and detailing to the project, no matter what style of home we are rendering. Then, when other firms leave you with only their plans to endeavor to find quality General Contractors and solicit bids, we are still by your side, guiding you to the reputable G.C.s and helping you to compare and understand their bids. Ultimately, we will even remain with your project throughout construction as your advocate to ensure your treasured home (and biggest asset) is built per the Construction Drawings and with the quality of construction you expect. * If Goldberg Design Group sounds like a good fit for you already, please read on.


*GDG’s services during construction are owner-elected and require additional fees.

Stephen B. Goldberg – (My Story)

As a child whose family moved frequently and was often searching for a new home, I began sketching houses at a very early age. By the time I was 7 years old, notebooks were filled with floor plan design sketches. I traipsed through every home under construction I could find, noting how it felt, how it was constructed, and how I would live in it. I studied every blueprint I could find to see how these were conveyed on paper. By my junior year in architecture studies, I was already designing stunning, lake-front custom homes that were being built in the most prestigious communities in our region. So, it would not surprise anyone who knew me early on that my love for houses would eventually become a successful career designing them professionally.


After completing my studies and graduating from Washington University in St. Louis, I officially set up shop to focus solely on creating the sophisticated, elegant home designs our clients have come to expect from us throughout Indiana, Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Arkansas, and even as far away as the Turks and Caicos and Tanzania. My homes have been featured in several national and regional magazines and have been awarded numerous times, including multiple Home-A-Rama Awards and an American Institute of Architects (A.I.A.) local chapter Award for Best Residential Design. Most recently, GDG was named to the Top 100 Luxury Residential Design Firms in Northern America by Bond Custom, an International Forum representing leaders of Global Architecture and Design. GDG was commissioned to design the prestigious Indianapolis Monthly Dream Homes in 2005, 2008, 2010, 2019, and 2023.

My ability to capture any period or style of home with equal finesse has set our business apart from other firms and designers. Whether your tastes are Contemporary, Modern, French, Tudor, Georgian, Italianate, Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Spanish Eclectic (Mediterranean), Tuscan, or a myriad of other styles, all will be rendered with exceptional attention to accurate period detail and appropriate scale. Furthermore, not only do we create beautiful homes, but well executed and flowing spaces that enhance the lifestyles of our homeowners. Around every corner, you will find a focal point of the design; our homes are designed to frame views, both interior and exterior, and make daily living and grand entertaining equally comfortable. No space is left out of the design process. GDG will create a home for generations of your family to gather and enjoy.
