Crow Works began in 1995 when Ohio childhood sweethearts Dennis and Denise Blankemeyer opened a 1,200-square-foot shop in Grandview Heights. Today, the Ohio manufacturer carries that founding emphasis on timeless American design and natural materials into made-to-order commercial furniture for national brands and busy public spaces. Its stewardship includes FSC certification and a Tree for Every Top program that has planted more than 113,000 saplings.
