The Founder
Jon Goldsmith
Hi, I'm Jon Goldsmith. I founded J Goldsmith Design because too many homeowners were making expensive outdoor living decisions without the guidance they deserved.
I've worked on projects ranging from patios and outdoor kitchens to covered structures, decks, and full backyard transformations. What I've learned: successful projects start with a clear plan, honest expectations, and good communication.
I help clients navigate the design and planning process with confidence — combining design expertise, real-world construction knowledge, and straightforward budget guidance to create outdoor spaces that are both beautiful and buildable.
When I'm not designing outdoor spaces, you'll usually find me spending time with my wife, Amber, and our two dogs, Charlie and Aspen. I'm also a big Atlanta United fan and enjoy exploring local breweries around Atlanta.
The Approach
What Sets Us Apart
01
Design Expertise
Great outdoor spaces start with thoughtful design. Every recommendation is made with your lifestyle, property, and long-term goals in mind.
02
Construction Insight
Design is only valuable if it can be built successfully. Real-world construction experience helps ensure your project is practical, buildable, and ready for execution.
03
Budget Awareness
We help you understand the real cost of your outdoor project before you commit. Honest guidance on where to invest, where to save, and how to phase work intelligently over time.
04
Personalized Guidance
Every project receives hands-on involvement from start to finish, ensuring clear communication and a consistent vision throughout the process.
