Welcome to BGD, a New Jersey-based interior design firm that challenges the boundaries of design to create selective high-end residential projects, extraordinary commercial and hospitality spaces, as well as developer-branded multi-housing and spec communities. BGD has evolved under the guidance of its founder, renowned interior designer Blanche Garcia, into a dynamic team of innovative and dedicated designers.
At BGD, we reimagine the standard notions of the built environment through intentional design. We firmly believe that a spiritual connection is essential to curating a meaningful experience, ultimately reinforcing both physical and intuitive existence within each space. An energy assessment forms an integral part of each of our projects, allowing our design team to delve deep into the intentions and driving forces of each unique space. This immersive process guides our design concepts and ensures a transformative impact on anyone interacting within our environments.
With Blanche providing over 28 years of experience as a certified "Green Design" LEED Accredited Professional and a "WELL AP" design professional, BGD seamlessly blends sustainability and wellness concepts within its projects. We strive to align ourselves with projects that are mission-driven, soul-centered, and community-based.
Catering to an impressive clientele, our projects range from bespoke residential spaces, hotels, restaurants, nightclubs, and notable other commercial projects. Apart from being a proud member of the American Society of Interior Designers, Blanche has spearheaded significant projects such as the Wyndham TRYP Hotel in Newark, New Jersey. She was also the principal designer in the popular Travel Channel reality series “Hotel Impossible” for five seasons, reimagining hotels all over the world.
Embodying BGD's commitment to holistic living is our lifestyle brand Conscious Home, which delves into the spiritual aspects of creating spaces that promote self-discovery and personal enrichment. The brand ethos is that everyone has the power to create meaningful change in their lives in co-creation with their environment. Conscious Home not only influences our design approach but also serves as the platform for Blanche's podcast “The Conscious Home Podcast.”
BGD, with its talented team of design professionals, continues to redefine industry design standards. From visual appeal to spiritual resonance, BGD crafts spaces that mirror the heart, mind, and spirit of each project.
