5 out of 5 starsRyan drew up a custom size banquette to fit our needs. It arrived in two crates, well packed, and blemish-free. It fit perfectly in our breakfast dining area. We are very happy with the results. Thanks Ryan!

5 out of 5 starsWe’re so happy with our banquette! Communication with Ryan was smooth and lightning-fast from start to finish. He built to some tricky specs on our end — a large baseboard and working around an outlet — and nailed it. When shipping damaged one piece, he immediately sent a replacement, no hassle at all. We looked into local custom builds before finding this shop, and it turned out to be an incredible alternative. Highly recommend!

Ryan Parker
Owner, Artisan
My name is Ryan, and I am the owner and creator of Great Lakes Design. Like any great artist would tell you, I LOVE TO CREATE, NOT TO PRODUCE. Every piece is 100% unique, made with limited tools and an ever-developing set of handicraft skills.

Artisan
I got into woodworking after college as a hobby. I began working with Ryan where my skills would allow. As the business grew, so did my ability. It's been an amazing opportunity and I look forward to many years of creating beautiful works of art.
