About the Designs~

Ron Corl creates his luxury furniture brand by combining modern, artistic design with the care of the Amish craftsman that hand build every piece. His designs span your lifestyle through all the transitions life throws at you!

Although the brand has grown too large for Ron to build every piece himself, he is still hands-on with every client project from start to finish and beyond. He personally makes sure the same quality and care go into every piece, whether it's a pet bed for your Fluffy, or cabinets for one of the best luxury hotels around the world. Designed for people who love their nest and aren't afraid to fly ahead of the flock. Ron calls his style "Lifestyle Amplified"™
Ron has clients over the world ~ all across the US & Canada, and all the way to South Korea and China.

About the Designer~

Ron Corl has been designing and building since he was a baby. "I remember stacking big wooden blocks in kindergarten and trying to understand how far I could push them off-center before they would fall. I've never stopped pushing those blocks as far as I can! My motto is- "If you never build a box around yourself in the first place, you'll never need to think outside of it"!
His pieces don't blend in with your room - they are the anchor point and you design your room around them!

He designed and hand-built a tiny cottage on his 30 acre Ohio tree farm. This proves there can be comfortable living in 500 square feet or less. He Now lives in a small Cape with his artist wife, Susan, and a spoiled cat, Sophi.

    I cannot recommend Corl Design Ltd highly enough. They were a dream to work with -- very responsive and professional. The stools they made for my clients were super sturdy and comfortable and look amazing in their Nantucket kitchen. Even better, they arrived ahead of schedule. I will definitely work with them again on future projects.

    I wish I needed more!! Working with Ron & Sue was easy from the very first inquiry. Very responsive, attentive and just all around pleasant to deal with (it was obvious that their customer's matter to them). Every detail was discussed (seat size, stain color, wood choice, type of finish on the legs, etc.) and the finished product was exactly as I had envisioned. The level of skill and craftsmanship is obvious and I wouldn't hesitant to recommend Ron for any custom item, as I believe it would turn out great!

    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! Mick & Angela

    Ron is a true professional and a master craftsman. The vanity is spectacular looking as well as first class quality and outstanding craftsmanship. I am extremely happy I made the journey in having a custom piece made by Ron. Ron kept me informed all through the process. He was timely, helpful and responsive. I would highly recommend Ron to anyone who wishes to have a special piece of furniture.

    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.

    From start to finish, the process was painless. The finished product speaks for itself. It was exactly what we wanted and we couldn't be happier. Ron was a breeze to work with, was readily accessible throughout the process and delivered a finished product that lived up to our expectations. I wish I had other projects for him. I will recommend him to all our friends -- not only those doing renovation projects, but those thinking about doing them.

    Ron Corl is amazing. As much as I love the work he did for us, I loved working with him even more. He's just an amazing guy. Super creative. Passionate about his work and obsessed with getting the project done right. No cutting corners. No debate over the details. Just perfection. Can't recommend him highly enough.

    What an absolute pleasure Ron was to work with. We collaborated to modify from a bed he had already created, and his drawings were top notch, allowing me to make decisions and see exactly what i was going to receive before the project was even begun. While it was in process, he gave me regular updates, and he stayed under budget (!). Delivery was so smooth I was astonished, and the quality of the bed I received is completely incredible. Not only would I recommend him to anyone, I would go back to him for any custom furniture project!

    Working with Ron was really an incredible experience. I ended up doing 3 separate projects with him and he essentially threw in a fourth item with some fo the leftover wood from one of the other 3. Ron was very responsive and truly a pleasure to work with. Moreover, the quality of the work was absolutely top-notch.

    The process was very well managed and the finished product is beautiful, practical and amazes me every day (a desk I use on a daily basis). It meets my needs perfectly. The only issue I had was with the delivery company, which Ron did all that he could to help resolve, and which did eventually get worked out.

    Ron was exceptional to work with and always kept us updated on the progress. His attention to detail is extraordinary and it shows in the final project! We have already gotten a lot of attention from clients/guests. He knows how to get a high quality product completed and goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with the end result. Thanks Ron!!!

    For custom made media storage project
    5.0

    Ron was an absolute pleasure to work with!! Although my husband and I had an idea of how we wanted to design our media cabinet, we didn't know what kind of wood we wanted to use. Ron was extremely patient and informative while we were considering our options. Just prior to selecting the type of wood for our cabinet, I became extremely indecisive about making a selection. But he never seemed annoyed and continued to answer all of my questions, never losing his sense of humor. Throughout the construction phase, he provided updates in order to ensure us that the cabinet was built to our exact specifications. In the end, we now have a beautiful media cabinet that looks far better than we had ever imagined and for a reasonable price. Thanks Ron!! We look forward to working with you again....

    For Computer Desk

    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.

    For Upholstered Ottoman

    I would HIGHLY recommend Ron to anyone wanting a custom piece! The ottoman he crafted was absolutely beautiful and of the highest quality. Ron thought of everything from making the piece stronger (for our 2 year old climber) to matching the brown in the fabric to the brown in the wood. In addition, he was a fantastic communicator, sending me updates and pics of his progress every step of the way. Couldn't be happier!

    A lot of time and care went into this project, and I am quite pleased with the final appearance. Ron Corl has been a pleasure to work with, as he's been available and responsive at every turn and a perfectionist determined to "get it right," while at the same time personable with a sense of humor.

    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.

    For Modern Cat Bunk Bed

    It was great working with Ron. I had some vague idea of what I wanted when I posted the project, and he came up with a couple of great ideas. We then discussed sizes, colors, fabrics and finishes. It all came together in a great cat bunk bed that we (cats and humans) love.

    For Gothic Headboard
    5.0

    The bed is outstanding! It is exactly what we dreamed of and the size we wanted. We were so lucky to have Ron to guide us through the design, wood choice and finish. We had no prior experience and he showed tremendous patience and enthusiasm for this project. Since we live 2,000 miles away the communication was critical. I have no less than 30 e-mails from him and received 6 finish options in the mail. Throughout the process he made sure the design was our vision, although he had LOTS of options. The bed was constructed by Amish woodworkers and the craftsmanship is amazing. Simply couldn't have had a better experience.
