Lee and Sandra Ridolfi

Extremely talented interior designer. Michael is easy to work with--he has done several rooms for us and all results have exceeded our expectations. Not only does he focus on style, but also functionality, which my husband and I appreciate. Michael is puntual--if he makes a date to see you, he's there, on time. Very knowledgeable of the latest products for any room. Another important factor is that he works very well with the contractor, extremely important. The remodel(s) went well, we're extremely happy with Michael's ideas and follow-ups with any issues. We wouldn't consider anyone else but Michael Trahan--great!

Comment from Michael Trahan Interior Design:

Appreciate this rave review. Working with you two has been such a joy ride - always sparking my creativity. Thank you for the opportunity and cannot wait to see the completion of the next phase!

Susan Black

Michael is a profoundly talented, creative and a patient interior designer. We were over our heads with a total gut and remodel, I wanted a designer who understood what I wanted and could produce options. Michael worked around what had already been installed to produce the warm and inviting environment I had described to him. He offered choices that were smart and on budget, he was inventive and supportive, and so available. His demeanor is easy going and well put together, down to earth and able to design in any circumstance, whether high end or on the cheap. I cannot recommend him highly enough. What a gem to find someone so kind and sensitive to hear what I wanted and able to produce results quickly and accurately with such ingenuity and knowledge.

Thanks for your kind words. Love working with you guys - always fun and rewarding! Looking forward to our next venture!

Carolyn Oliver

Michael took our 38-year-old home into the present using a variety of materials that reflected his great sense of style and taste. He incorporated new ideas into existing spaces that complimented colors and features that we wanted to keep. He gave us many pictures and samples to choose from and helped us to branch out into new perspectives of design and color. He gave our home character and style. Michael is detail focused, and frequently checked in on the progress along the way, working side by side with our contractor. Michael was always available for consultation and support and helped restore a sense of pride in our home ownership.

Thanks to you guys for allowing our team to design and implement a refreshed style and add new character to your home. We are thrilled that you love the transformation and appreciate your patience throughout the process. Enjoy your new comfort!

Lisa & Scott

My husband and I decided to completely redo the family room where we spent most of our time during the Covid lockdown. It was in dire need of a facelift. We hired Michael to design a fresh, new, modern interior, and he exceed our expectations! He came up with a color palate and design that we would never have thought of, but absolutely love! He was friendly, easy to work with, and a great liaison with the construction team. We have been spending most of our time in our “new” room and always marvel at how beautiful and comfortable it is. I highly recommend Michael and his unique and creative design sensibility.

Love that you two are enjoying spending time in your newly designed family room. It was our pleasure working with you and thanks for trusting us throughout the process.

Toni Foster, REALTOR/GRI

As a Realtor, I have referred Michael's services to many new home (and mobile home!) owners for help with remodeling and redesign. He brings an discerning eye and a listening ear to create incredible, livable magic. Everyone is always thrilled.

Michael transformed my dated, 29 year old home into a contemporary, functional masterpiece. He really listened to what I wanted and always gave me great choices. The space now highlights my late partner's art and I love to walk into each room. He has impeccable taste. He is also very kind and it is easy to work with him.

Thanks for your kind words Susie. We had fun working with you on your project and really appreciate your patience throughout the design and implementation processes.

We used Michael in 2016 to remodel our kitchen, dining room and living room. He was very easy to work with and extremely professional. He was on top of our project at all times and we loved the results. So did everyone else! Thank you Michael! Lisa Mcveigh

Michael Trahan has designed several rooms in our home, including the living room/dining room and the family room. His designs were perfect for our lifestyle and our space. His suggestions for wall colors, light fixtures, and window treatments were exactly what we were looking for. I especially appreciated his ability to position our artwork and our unique pieces to their best advantage. His efforts made the living room a unique space and representative of our lives. We started the work before the pandemic and there were some issues with supply chain for the furniture, but Michael kept everything well organized. He found wonderful professional people for the painting, flooring, and window treatments. He kept this project working well in trying times and brought to a wonderful, beautiful conclusion.

Michael has been instrumental in designing several spaces in our home, including the master bedroom, living room, dining room and kitchen. Michael great to work with to help us create what is now a beautiful, functional and comfortable home. He has also helped us choose exterior paint colors and more.

Thanks Jeanne for this 5-star review. What a blast - always fun working with you!

Michael Daudel

We engaged Michael Trahan to remodel our house that has a beautiful view. Michael was very accommodating to our busy work schedules. He worked with us to choose the interior elements and finishes given our style tastes and design objectives. He took our combined ideas, came back with great choices, and coordinated the work of vendors and contractors to bring them to life. Even when there was a problem he stepped in to help sort it out. The result is an inviting home that embraces a spectacular view. It was an easy-going, pleasurable experience working with Michael throughout our design project.

Comment from Michael Trahan Interior Design:

Thanks Michael! It was a great project to work with you guys on and happy that we were able to maximize your awesome view into the open concept design.

Richard Fleming

My wife and I wanted help with changing out a number of light fixtures both inside and outside our home, as well as putting in some new lighting. We were referred to Michael by a home remodeling company in town. In short, he is excellent. Michael came to our home and listened to what we wanted as far as changing the look and feel of our lighting fixtures. A couple of weeks later, he came back with a lot of options and ideas, which we reviewed with him carefully. We liked most of the ideas, but a few were not quite what we were looking for. The additional review helped Michael know what we wanted, and he came back a week or so later with even better ideas that are just what we wanted. Throughout the process, Michael was helpful, knowledgeable, and flexible. He is easy to work with and we recommend him very highly. Our lighting redesign project was much more successful with Michael's help than if we had tried to do it on our own.
