A legacy of beauty and
function through design.
Dedicated to the idea that beautiful architecture and interior design can improve the lives of its clients, Ruggles Lindemann Bell has designed more than 1,000 residential and commercial projects around the globe since its founding in 1970 by renowned architect Donald H. Ruggles. A boutique design firm that blends traditional principles of architecture and interior design with modern sensibilities, Ruggles Lindemann Bell can work within any architectural style. Our approach is highly collaborative and the end result is always a true reflection of the client’s personality, preferences, and program. Every project is highly custom, but intended to stand the test of time. In 2025, the firm transitioned its leadership from Don Ruggles to co-CEOs Emily Lindemann and Justin Bell to carry on those principles and foundations of beautiful and functional design for all.
