How We Differentiate Ourselves

The Design District is proud to boast a rapidly growing group of reputable home design business owners who are committed to supporting each other and the neighborhood as a whole to make our community thrive.

With professionals in the areas of exterior remodeling, interior design, material suppliers, security, furnishings, fixtures, and more, you only have to come to one place to find everything you need and you’ll always be able to get a trusted referral for what’s next on your list. It’s the convenience of a big box store with the expertise of people who have been doing it for decades. 

A Vibrant Community 

The Design District is West Hartford’s best-kept secret!  We are real people with best-in-class expertise and customer service to back it up. Find highly experienced salespeople who will follow-up with you every time or a product supplier who will scour the country for what you need. Your home is our number one priority. 

100% Local

The Design District Association is made up of all local, independent businesses who work hard to go above and beyond for their customers. We like to think of ourselves as one big family and we are proud contributors to the economic makeup of West Hartford’s diverse business community.
