Dee Marksberry founded Gage-Martin in 2003 in order to convey her unique appreciation of luxury and aesthetics. Her approach is to go beyond decorating to focus on the entire lifestyle, thus making the home a sanctuary. At Gage-Martin, we design each job as our first. Inspiration is pulled from every corner of our interest: the lines of an Ian Schrager building, fabrics in a YSL catalogue, the styling of an Aston Martin interior. Anything beautiful, anything powerful informs our design. This is why there is no trademarked Gage-Martin look. From contemporary to traditional to island, we understand the beauty and merit of every style so we can create a job that honestly reflects the client and not the design firm. In addition to aesthetics, Gage-Martin understands luxury itself-- what defines it and gives it value. While necessities make life livable, luxuries make it enjoyable. Whether expressed in skilled craftsmanship, studied artistry, enduring design, etc. the ability of luxury to enrich our everyday lives makes it relevant in an economy. Because the concept of luxury is different to everyone, at Gage-Martin we strive to create an environment of luxury uniquely tailored to each client.
