Our Story

Our History

Since 1997, OstermanCron has put people first. We foster a culture of support, compassion, and tenacity, and our projects reflect our values. Through vibrant teams and trusted partners, we create unique solutions for every organization we work with.

OstermanCron was founded by Joel Osterman and Keith Cron with a shared vision: to create inspiring environments through thoughtful design, trusted partnerships, and exceptional service. Together, they built a company rooted in integrity, collaboration, and expertise

Under the leadership of President Maggie Cron, OstermanCron has continued to evolve—growing our services, expanding our capabilities, and strengthening the way we support our clients. Today, we are proud to stand as a women-owned business, delivering more than furniture by offering architectural solutions, décor, acoustic enhancements, technology integration, and full-service project management. Guided by our mission of creating environments people love, we remain committed to designing spaces that reflect who you are and where you’re headed.
