Industrial Modern Saddle Stool

Ron has been fantastic to work with. I came to the project knowing some of the specifics of what I needed in a desk, but without a clear idea of what it would look like as a finished product. He was able to take my needs and turn them, not only into what I needed, but into a work of art. He was professional throughout the process, kept me informed, and when it turned out that there wasn't enough ventilation for my monster of a computer, he worked with me to fix that even after delivery. I'd highly recommend working with Ron Corl. The experience has been wonderful and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Working with Ron Corl at Ron Corl Designs was an incredible experience. Based on a variety of personal preferences, Ron created a breath taking custom-made dressing table and wrap-around we call Falling Leaf Vanity. It was specifically made to fit in a very cozy corner of my master dressing room. Throughout every step of the design process, Ron was available 24-7, even surprising me by responding to emails sent very late at night. The man is indefatigable! From my general ideas, thoughts and preferences, he incorporated his own modern style to create a gorgeous, yet highly functional work of art. Despite my diverse style preferences, he managed to blend art nouveau with shaker (Ron coins it "Shaker Nouveau"). The end result was a curvy, feminine, yet simple, elegant, and functional dressing table that incorporated aspects of nature with a twist of glam. The final piece was custom designed to the millimeter to fit a very tricky corner space in my dressing room and yet had to contain all my necessary "beauty tools" and jewelry. It had to fit absolutely perfectly, and Ron managed to accomplish this via emails and pictures sent from way out of state. His emails were so clear, detailed and understandable we never even spoke until after delivery, although he always offered to call if needed! He actually looked at measurements of my hair dryer to make sure his drawers would be built to contain it properly. A variety of natural and rare woods from curly cherry to African bloodwood, zebra wood and leopard wood and others were used to create an autumnal falling leaf motif that reminded me of my "Autumn in Vermont" wedding theme, complete with circular beveled mirror (that resembles a rising sun to me) and custom drawers on the main table and wrap-around. The delicate leaf inlays were nothing short of perfect. The rich stains and decadent finishes of the wood varietals dance and interact perfectly to create an environment that almost comes alive, rather than functioning simply as a piece of furniture. I can't stop running my hands across the perfectly finished wood which to me feels like velvet. Ron painstaking incorporates his clients' thoughts and then adds his own flare to make his pieces come alive. I have never worked with a better designer - EVER!!! Not only is he a super-nice human being, Ron is uber-responsive, meticulous, dedicated, patient with changes, honest and amazingly talented. He simply pours his soul into every piece like his life depended on it. His positive energy is reflected in the piece itself. Ron's multiple 3-D computer renditions made envisioning the final product a snap. Even before shipment he made sure I was 100% satisfied with his design by sending u-tube videos throughout production. Then when the vanity arrived in perfect condition from Ohio to Philadelphia through a highly recommended shipper, I was dumbfounded at how even more incredible and stunning it looked in person. Early on Ron had sent abundant wood samples, stain options, colors, drawings, 3-D renditions and u-tube videos of different design aspects throughout every step of the process, even on national holidays. He patiently did this until I was satisfied I was making the right choices. Not once did he complain when I couldn't decide among the beautiful options he made available. Nothing was sacrificed and the quality and design could not be better. I could not have asked for a more perfect and enjoyable custom made design experience. I would highly recommend Ron Corl at Ron Corl Designs over and over again as a designer to anyone looking for an artistically unique furniture piece whose unparalleled beauty and quality comes alive in your home. I started out just needing a make-up table, but realize now that this table will, in fact, be a valuable family heirloom for generations. Hence, this investment was worth every penny. I thank Ron Corl so much for his tireless effort in this process! My Falling Leaf Vanity fills me with joy each time I sit down in front of it.

My wife and I are extremely happy with our five new outdoor bar stools from Ron Corl Design. There beautiful! The level of craftsmanship is amazing and there the perfect compliment to our new outdoor living area. We highly recommend Ron. He customized a design just for us. Great communication, kept us informed of progress and was flexible as we worked through several design drafts. You can't find this quality in a department store or some catalog.

Working with Ron was a real pleasure. He is a craftsmen that takes great pride in his work and expects nothing less than perfection from himself. He was very patient while we designed the ottoman and worked with me every step of the way. It is amazing and so is he!!! I will have more work done with him and would recommend him without a single reservation.

Ron is a true professional. Our stools had to be made extra high to fit a unique space in our home and Ron hit a grand slam home run! They look fabulous, we are very pleased. I look forward to working with Ron again in the future; a real knowledgeable and fun guy. Thanks Ron!
