**★★★★★ — HU-150154835, Nov. 2018**

> Andrea gave us a clear vision of how our ideas would come to fruition. She provided direction from start to finish on how and where we would choose our materials and what shades work best.  She had solutions to even our most difficult demands. She is precise and has great follow through. Together with her excellent team and material sources we together were able to bring our dream to reality.  Not all projects are easy and ours was difficult at times but Andreas expertise made it cohesive and brought peace of mind to us.  She has a wealth of experience and it shows.  I would suggest letting Andrea choose your Contractor and team of consultants to complete your project from start to finish.  She is worth the money and goes above and beyond her necessary services to make her clients happy.  She gave us advice with furniture choices when we were confused on color schemes.  We didn’t originally ask her for this but she offered anyway to help.  This to me was above and beyond.  You will be happy with your outcome if you let it in Andreas hands.  I highly recommend her company for your interior design project big or small.

**★★★★★ — ivanabramson, Oct. 2016**

> Andrea has impeccable taste and unwavering patience.  She has a beautiful way of bringing together the old world and the new and breathes incredible life into all the work she does. We have worked with her on several projects and we look forward to future projects together that are already in the works.

**★★★★★ — anneepalmer, Aug. 2016**

> Andrea Michaelson brings sunshine, talent, creativity and a unique thinking to rethinking how a room, or an entire home, can look better to fit the client's lifestyle and taste. She is mindful about budget, and knows where money is best invested. The outcome is all pleasure and pride to own pieces that will stay with you wherever you go and/or items that will upgrade the value of your home. WIN/WIN

**★★★★★ — Richard Michaelson, July 2015**

> \`After purchasing my loft I decided it needed a new look. I hired Andrea Michaelson design and it was the best experience I've ever had with a design and build firm. Andrea took charge and converted a single room loft into a work of art. From custom metal and leather walls, to a fabulous kitchen and bathroom. I have storage space galore due to the design and implementation of a wall system custom built and finished by professionals working with Andrea. Andrea  had a sofa and two coffee tables she personally designed made to fit seamlessly into the living areas. My bathroom consists of a Japanese soaking tub, German made cabinets, custom marble sinks and vanities and a great two person shower.

> I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome and the professionalism displayed by Andrea Michaelson Design.

**★★★★★ — MJ Degens, Aug. 2013**

> Andrea is a gifted designer who helps you retain the essence of your style while ensuring a holistic and balanced result.
>
> I was drawn to Andrea's design aesthetic on HOUZZ and was thrilled to discover she was in driving distance from my home.  She kindly worked around my schedule and gave of her time generously.
> When we met, I was truly impressed at how quickly she assessed my plan and materials for my master bath remodel.  The bathroom is complex with asymmetric angles and multiple planes. Yet, she was able to easily assimilate the variables and knew what would or wouldn’t work. In addition to her guidance, she also provided me with valuable sample materials that complemented key items I had selected for my remodel.
>
> Andrea truly saved me from making mistakes by candidly changing out certain items, introducing new and innovative materials and pulling everything into balance.  Before I met Andrea, I was at a stressful impasse.  Thanks to her, I now have the plan, resources and assurance I was missing and can’t wait to start my remodel.  It's going to be amazing.  Thank you, Andrea!

**Q: Faucet** *(in Photo Questions)*

I'm looking at 2 faucets that resemble the one in this photo: VIGO Zurich & Kraus KPF-1602SS. is the faucet in this photo either of these? If so, has it had any history of leaking?

I'm sorry the faucet is neither of those models, i haven't had any problems with leaking.
Best, Andrea
