Ron Orfield grew up in the Lake Harriet Linden Hills Community, working with his father on their various historical apartment buildings in St Paul. This hands-on education sparked Ron's interest in architecture and design. Upon graduating from the University of Minnesota with a Degree in Architecture in 1969, Ron designed at architectural firms in England and United States for many years. He loved the accomplishment of watching a project go from design to build, so it was a natural transition to marry the design aspect with the construction to create specifically what the client had in mind. At this point, Ron decided to partner with his brother Henry, who was already in construction and they then incorporated Orfield Design & Construction in 1978. They worked in the residential remodeling industry on the historical properties in St Paul and Country Club area and expanded to the Twin Cities and surrounding areas. Ron is referred for his courteous nature, creative and artistic designs, detailed finish and exquisite craftsmanship on projects. Ron Orfield is the current President and Owner of Orfield Design & Construction and homeowner with his wife in Edina. Laura Orfield-Skrivseth has worked since 1995 as a business manager for large international companies and small partnerships, developing organizational and legal processes for sales, marketing, management, employees, as well as human resources,corporate policy and structure.
