About Us

Founded in 1999 by partners Scott G. McDonough and Ray Martin, Graydon Design, Inc. has become an increasingly exciting force among today’s competitive young interior design firms. Both are alumni of New York’s Fashion Institute of Technology, having been trained in all areas of interior design and architecture. They achieved further training and experience as associates of the late renowned designer Michael deSantis. A full service design firm catering primarily to a residential clientele, the team has produced a range of high end projects in New York, Southampton, Palm Beach, London and the Middle East. Numerous projects have been published in New York Living, Casa & Jardim, Florida Design, and The New York Times Home Magazine

While Martin and McDonough collectively agree that the success of an interior design project is relevant to establishing a unique rapport with the client, their design sensibilities reflect a distinctive style incorporating strong architectural details, rich color schemes, and elegant lines. "Our design repertoire ranges from Old World glamour to streamlined Moderne to contemporary elegance. I am constantly editing and re-interpreting the Classical language in order to achieve a modern, yet timeless quality in our interiors," states Martin.

Each project is infused with an individual aesthetic; special consideration is given to locale, climate, architectural style, and the client’s lifestyle. The partners plan, execute and oversee every minute detail from start to finish, including the custom design and fabrication of furniture, carpets, and other furnishings. "Regardless of the size or scope of a given project, we take it to its fullest potential, never compromising high end quality and style," adds McDonough.

"Our penchant for design is to 
create environments that are uniquely individual, timelessly 
classic and comfortably tailored 
to today’s lifestyles."
