A passion for quality and an inspired aesthetic have led Goddard Design Group to become one of the top firms in Northwest Arkansas and beyond
Chris Goddard’s love of design started when he was a small child. “My mother is a firm believer in creative expression, so she enrolled me in art and music classes, which, in turn, exposed me to all the wonders that the world has to offer,” he says.
Today, Chris’s work spans the globe from the Baja Peninsula to New York City—and all points of the state of Arkansas. He has also had the privilege of being named one of the Top 100 Designers in the World by Andrew Martin.
Overall, he says his main goal in designing a project “is to capture the personality of our clients and provide them with a home and not just a house. Great design starts conversations, and there is nothing better than people seeing one of our projects and saying, ‘Where in the world did you find that?’” He also says that quality is of the utmost importance in every project. “It is always better to have one amazing piece that illuminates a personality or tells a story than a project filled with meaningless objects.”
As for his continued passion for the industry, Chris says “I eat, sleep, and live for design. Whether in the office or traveling, I am always looking for inspiration. If you love what you do, then it’s not really work but a daily adventure.”
