**★★★★★ — Rue, March 2015**

> Michael Tavano is one of the most talented designers I know. He's an inventive problem solver, and he brings a great sense of fun to all his design projects. He is a fearless master of color in his own work, which I greatly admire. And yet he listens well to his clients and can tailor his vision to make everyone happy. Michael Tavano Design also has a strong "back office" team behind him (including a workroom), so they have more control over deliveries and efficiencies than some designers do.
>
> Any design project can come with its share of stresses and often the joy is stripped away by the process. Not with Michael and his team. They make design joyful - both in the process and the output. I can't say enough good things about Michael and his team: they're just wonderful to work with.
