Several months later and he continued to insist the table was on its way. I contacted the manufacturer directly and it turned out they dropped him from licensing the furniture years ago due to fraud. He was fraudulently selling furniture he was not licensed to sell. Lukas only returned my deposit after I contacted my credit card company and reported him for fraud. Beware! **★★★★★ — higgins214, Jan. 2020** > Michael Del Piero Good Design designed my kitchen, dining room and family room renovation. They worked seamlessly with my contractor. The MGD team (especially Judson Barrett-O’Keefe) was a pleasure to work with and always professional. I appreciate their design approach and process. This is my second time with MDP, and I am just as ecstatic with the result as the first time around (living room, entry, powder room, master bedroom). I appreciate their willingness to collaborate while still keeping the overall vision intact. They make the decision process so easy. Trusting your designer is crucial, and MGD has not let me down. My only negative is that Michael, herself, would have been onsite more often. **★★★★★ — brooks ralston, Nov. 2018** > Michael Del Piero is an incredible designer, with a unique eye for creating spectacular spaces. > > I've had the pleasure of working with her over the last few years and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to hire one of the most talented designers in Chicago. **★ — User, Sept. 2018** > This was the worst design experience that I have ever had. It’s a shame we can’t rate using negative stars because I wouldn’t even give them a 1 star rating. **★★★★★ — Oscar Isberian Rugs, Nov. 2015** > Michael and her team are phenomenal. Michael is creative, inspirational, and a joy to work with. The team at Oscar Isberian Rugs is happy to be a part of many of her projects. **★★★★★ — Janet Mesic Mackie Photographer, Sept. 2014** > I have not only had the pleasure of photographing Michael's beautiful interiors but have used her design firm for my own home. Michael is by far one of the most talented people in the industry. She has a distinctive style that blends modern with ancient, textures and color with a seamless simplicity that is beyond exceptional. I am alway excited to see one of her new projects. Everyone of them is an inspiration and a visual delight. Her work is so layered and sophisticated but completely livable. I can honestly say the impact her influence has had on my home has been considerable. I feel she has the ability to elevate any space to a level of refinement and sophistication. **★★★★★ — noraweir, Sept. 2014** > My husband and I have used Michael del Piero many times for extensive design consultation. With each project, Michael listened to what we wanted to accomplish and was instrumental in achieving our vision. The projects were quite different: a 7500 sq foot home in Winnetka, IL, a 4 BR contemporary condo in downtown Chicago's Gold Coast, a condo on MIami Beach, a 500 sq foot studio in downtown Chicago and two NYC apartments. Michael's sense of scale, color and design is perfection. She gave us options and brought unique pieces to us that we could never find on our own. We go back to Michael over and over for design consultation because she is the best. I wish there were more than 5 stars! **★★★★★ — Jill Maremont, Sept. 2014** > There is no denying Michael Del Piero has talent. Her unique aesthetic fuses rough with luxurious while blending ancient with modern. She achieves poetic balance by mastering scale and proportions, texture and tone. She creates effortless and livable interiors which are current, enduring, sophisticated and comfortable. Her passion for world travel and appetite for all things beautiful, allows her to create unusual interiors peppered with one- of-a-kind objects from across the globe. The end result a beautiful and well curated interior. Michael is a lovely person, inside and out. Her refined communication technique makes her an absolute dream to work with. If you haven't visited her shop- it's a must see! **★★★★★ — Amy Keller, Aug. 2014** > Michael has an extraordinary ability to incorporate lifestyle, functional requirements and design into what we like. She consistently comes up with innovative ideas that meld together the different styles my husband and I tend to like (and disagree about sometimes) Michael's experience designing a wide variety of spaces for all types of people and places has helped us get perspective on many ideas and budgets. She beautifully incorporates our ideas and interests and makes sure we make good decisions for the long term. She has the ability to pick just the right element or object that makes the room special.In our kitchen, she found fabulous hardware that made a simple kitchen great. Our family room required a massive HVAC upgrade and Michael picked the perfect flooring for radiant heat. Literally, every room in our house has a special idea or treatment that she came up with. Michael creates beautiful spaces that you want to live in. ## Selected projects - [Glass House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/glass-house-pj-vj~1913956) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - Description: Designer Michael Del Piero is known for cultivating relationships with her clients.
