Our homes are the center of our lives and they influence how we live, how we feel, and how we connect with the people around us. We understand how curating your home can elevate and improve every facet of your life. The spaces we create invite slower mornings, longer dinners, quality relaxation, and meaningful connection with the people you love. Full of light and a sense of ease, we can help your home inspire a better way of living.
Your home shapes how you live.
Gaelle Dudley
Gaelle understands how much your surroundings affect the way you experience everyday life. After more than a decade working across hospitality design and marketing for global brands like St. Regis™, W Hotels™, and Westin™, she turned her focus to residential spaces, founding GLDESIGN in 2016.
Her perspective is influenced by her French heritage and her years spent living and working across the U.S., shaping an approach that values both beauty and livability. Gaelle is known for showing up fully for everything she does, personally invested in her clients, her team, her family, and the beautiful life she’s built.
For over a decade, Gaelle and her family have called Fairfield, Connecticut home, where life near the water continues to inspire her work. The sense of ease, presence, and connection she finds here is exactly what she aims to create in every home.
Gaelle’s work has been featured in Veranda, Better Homes & Gardens, Homes & Gardens, Martha Stewart, Modern Farmhouse, CT Cottages & Gardens, and East Coast Home & Design.

“This is one of those rare circumstances where the reality exceeds even the highest of expectations. The result is absolutely beautiful. No detail was missed. Even a new toy for the dog! A sincere thank you for a job exceptionally well done.”
-Ryan
“GLDESIGN didn't stop until everything was perfect, and coming from two perfectionists, we had never encountered anyone who cared as much as we do about our home until we met Gaelle and her team. They are truly the best.”
-Kelsey
“The team is so talented, but also so down to earth and kind, that they became close friends over the course of the project. I can't wait for the next project we get to do with them!”
-Lily
“Gaelle’s vision for home was truly brought to life and more perfect than we could have ever imagined on our own.”
-Tricia
“They truly love what they do and it is evident in the energy they bring to their projects everyday. As a client, you will always be their top priority. We feel so lucky to have a stunning GLD home that exceeded all of our expectations! They will forever be our go-to for projects big and small.”
