"Manitoba Chicken Producers has worked with Montage for over 15 years. They always take time at the beginning of a project to fully understand the design objectives and how it will be used. As a result, they deliver excellent work that very rarely ever need revisions. I highly recommend working with Susanne and Barry."

Misericordia Health Centre Foundation
Patti Smith, CFRE, Executive Director

"At Misericordia Health Centre Foundation we are delighted to have found Montage Design. From the very first meeting we believed that Susanne was interested and committed to understanding our needs and our plans and from that creating something beautiful and fresh to assist us with communicating those things. Montage Design was sensitive and respectful of the existing pieces of design that we wanted to keep while adding something to stand alone for our Future of Care campaign. We are delighted with the end product. Susanne and Barry have made our process simple, cost effective and on budget, on time, interesting and thoughtful. They have asked for our input and provided guidance all the way through each and every piece. Our partnership is enhancing the work that our Foundation is doing on behalf of Misericordia Health Centre. Thank you."

University of Winnipeg
Sandra Kirby, PhD Associate Vice-President (Academic) and Dean of Graduate Studies

We have used the services of Montage Design for a number of projects, including designing the "look and feel" of the new Graduate Studies Faculty at the University of Winnipeg. Susanne and her team are creative, consistent, timely, professional... and fun to work with. The final outcomes are stellar and have a long design life. There is always a challenge in working with Montage Design. They lead and we follow - anticipating questions before we even know what to ask.

Montage Design knows "the big secret". They fully understand what we need, and only then do they do the creative work on each project. The highest possible marks to Montage Design - I have recommended several others to them for their design needs.
