ABOUT ME
I have always loved making and building things. But for me, craft is not just a hobby—it's my heritage.
I am the grandson of a commercial illustrator, the nephew of a wood-turner, the son of a cabinet maker, and the brother of two housing tradesmen. Working with my hands is more than a passion—it's in my blood.
I’ve lived and worked in Geneva, Illinois nearly my entire life, and I’m proud to call it home. I don’t just build furniture—I build from a lifetime of tradition, skill, and deep local pride.

A Legacy of Craftsmanship
At Robert Russell Designs, every piece of custom furniture is a reflection of generations of craftsmanship. My work is rooted in the timeless traditions of woodworking, cabinet making, and fine furniture design. Whether I’m creating a custom dining table, a handcrafted coffee table, or a bespoke kitchen island, I bring a personal history of artistry and precision to every project.
Custom Furniture Built with Purpose
I specialize in custom wood furniture that blends form and function. My designs are tailored to meet the unique needs of homeowners, interior designers, and builders who value quality, authenticity, and craftsmanship. From reclaimed wood to premium hardwoods, I select materials that tell a story and stand the test of time.
Serving Geneva, the Greater Chicagoland Area — and Beyond
As a local artisan based in Geneva, Illinois, I’m proud to serve clients throughout St. Charles, Batavia, and the Chicagoland area. But my reach doesn’t stop there—I also ship custom furniture nationwide.
