Vincent Jones- I am writing on behalf of Maurizio Cattaneo. I have worked with Maurizio on several graphic design projects in my Calgary based business. He was an integral part in branding my first company in 2012. Maurizio was professional, talented and exceptional at understanding the process of creating visual content and marketing materials to represent the voice and vision of my company. His ability to work fast, interpret creative direction and meet deadlines was very impressive and he finished my projects always exceeding my expectations. Maurizio is very knowledgeable with various design software and demonstrated his knowledge of new technology, helping keep my website and marketing material current and relevant. I would highly recommend for any graphic design job and will continue to use his services. His kind and patient demeanor made working with him a pleasure. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors. Please feel free to contact me with any further questions. Sincerely, Jamie Mathiasen- - Therapeutic Yoga It is my pleasure to recommend Maurizio Cattaneo as a Graphic Designer. I am a visual artist and Maurizio and I have worked on several projects together over the past few years. Together we ran a series of Art Workshops, where I worked as the teacher and Maurizio handled all of the graphic communication. He created our digital brochures, Facebook advertising campaign, photographed the workshop and created video marketing material. Maurizio is always a pleasure to work with. He is creative and enthusiastic. He is open to creative feedback and is always professional. Without a doubt, I would work with Maurizio again, and believe he would be an asset to any creative organization. Sincerely, Emanuele Dascanio, Studio Za Umetnicko Stvaralastvo - tel:- I am writing to recommend Maurizio Cattaneo as an exemplary designer. I have had the pleasure of working with Mau as both client and collaborator. I have written text for several of Mau’s projects after which I engaged him to design my business cards and branding. Mau is always professional and respectful with an uncanny ability to read the clients needs intuitively. I presented him with a very vague idea from which he produced exactly what I wanted even when I myself didn’t really have a grasp on how it would look. Patience and an ability to listen beyond the words allow him to get to the essence of an idea. A subtle humour plays a large role in the way Mau works and it is always a delight to connect with him on any level. His professionalism measured with the right dose of light-heartedness makes even the most complicated projects appear effortless. He works through issues and problems with a calm and methodical temperament. I always enjoy working with him and was very saddened to see him leave Ibiza. The rare ability to understand people and situations and react accordingly means Mau will make a wonderful addition to any project or team that he joins. I cannot recommend him enough as a designer and as a human. I have no doubts the next project Mau takes on will be exceptional. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require further clarification. Sincerely, Danielle Landa -,-
