I came to the shop because I needed fabric for a few pieces I was getting reupholstered and Ken was so helpful in assisting me to pick out the perfect fabric from his large array of options. He truly seems like he cares and is just such a warm and welcoming person. He also carries a wonderful inventory of furniture and decor pieces with a wide range of styles and price points. I wouldn't hesitate to head back in for any home decor needs.

I was searching for a small couch for my new house. I was dealing with a small, kind of awkward space and am a picky furniture shopper. I stopped by Kenneth Ludwig Chicago because I learned he sells CR Laine furniture and that is the brand I had my eye on. Upon arriving, Kenneth was welcoming and listened to what I wanted. He's so knowledgeable about furniture and design, not pushy at all, and patient. I've been in his store a few times and each experience was great. I did end up purchasing a settee from Kenneth and that was about 1.5 years ago. The buying process was simple. The small

Ken and his team are a pleasure to work. They are truly experts in the industry and always help us bring our designs to reality. Ken has even sent me quotes while on vacation to help me meet a presentation deadline, which is such a huge gesture of professionalism!

A little designer tip for holiday gift buying for all you Chicago folks - stopped by Ken Ludwig’s design shop today in Roscoe Village, and it is not only a veritable Christmas miracle of the grandest kind (he killed it this year with his holiday merchandising), he’s stocked the store with the most fantastic gift ideas for the holidays - from glam barware and a plethora of scented candles to gorgeous Christmas Tree ornaments and textured throws. Stop by soon for a little heart-warming treat (materially and otherwise). It definitely made this ol’ Scrooge smile.

I have had the distinct pleasure of knowing Kenneth for many, many years. Not only is he talented and creative, he knows this business inside and out. He's a darn delight to work with!
Even though I'm quite elderly now, and semi-retired, I still look to Kenneth for guidance, beautiful furnishings, a happy face and a good stiff cocktail cocktail now and then! We love you Ken!

I was thrilled to hear about Ken's showroom when I started my design business last year. His variety of lines and overall customer service have not disappointed. Ken and his team are great resources for all of your design specification needs!

As a design geek, I completely adore Ken and his shop!

He thoroughly understands the benefits of performance/stain resistant fabrics for humans who actually like to enjoy their furniture. Ken definitely is in his element when it comes to customizing upholstery. Place a book of fabrics and trims in his hands, and he becomes visibly giddy. He generously shares his well-honed taste level so his clients walk away with a piece that is uniquely their own.

Time and time again, I have witnessed Ken nudge clients slightly past their comfort zone. Their gratefullness is evident as they walk a bit taller

When we moved last year from our condo to a single family home, I was very intimidated by the prospect of the massive decorating and furnishing project. Picking out paint colors was intimidating, I had no idea how pieces from our old place would fit into our new place, I needed to buy a lot of new things but didn't know where to start... I was super stressed out and overwhelmed by the whole process. That's when I met Ken. I happened to stumble across his showroom when I was out for a jog and I am beyond grateful that I did! I never really considered hiring a "decorator" as it sounded super expensive

I bought a new couch from Kenneth Ludwig a year ago. We love it. It fits our whole family and is durable with 3 kids. We have gotten markers and mac & cheese finger prints out of the couch just like Ken said we would.

I also like the store for smaller purchases. It is great for hostess presents or holiday decorating. There are always new items when I visit the store.

They are all always so nice when I stop in!

Ken and his team are amazing to work with! They have a wealth of knowledge of decor and can always point you in the right direction whether it is for your own home or simply a unique hostess gift.
There is no pressure to purchase something that you don't want and they will always be sure that you like what you get. If they don't have something that you want, you can be sure that Ken and his team will search for something that fits the bill! Don't forget to give sweet Harper Lee a little attention while you are there as well!

Ken has a wide variety of Voluspa candles which I love buying and giving as gifts. I also love how he wraps up the candles in a nice cute bag. He also sells great kitchenware and furniture. I would definitely recommend checking his store out. Everyone that works there is super nice and friendly and is quick to help. Their customer service is top-notch. Keep up the good work Ken and team!

Working with Kenneth Ludwig is always a positive experience! I know that I can count on Ken and team to have the knowledge on products and what's available. My design firm primarily uses KL Chicago as an upholstery vendor, we get top knotch service and our clients are ALWAYS pleased with the end result of the products. Amazing quality and the design is not compromised. In a world where the internet is taking over our trades and vendors, it's SO refreshing to have a industry partner that you will actually speak to, get real service and an amazing relationship!
