Debbie Arles, Clothing Designer

“As a small business the idea of investing in the design of a website can be an overwhelming task. Hiring Bill Mead to design LaPapata Design’s website was the best thing I could have done.

Bill’s personal style, intelligence, vision and calm nature made the experience an enjoyable and productive one.

Bill listened patiently and intelligently to meet every one of my design requests. He brings vision, balance and techincal savvy to the process. The end product is a website that continues to get praise for from my clients.”

Kathleen Marsh, Department Chair, Boston Arts Academy…

“One of the things I really like about working with Bill, in addition to his high degree of craft and sense of design, is his calming influence. He is able to assist in a large project quickly and with skill; most importantly he is a calming influence whose mantra is “We can do it!”. It is always a pleasure to work with Bill.”

Fernadina Chan, Artistic Dean and Dance Department Chair, Boston Arts Academy…

“You can always count on Bill to create magic with his graphic design. Bill has more than once transform my grainy photographs due to lack of light into artistic postcards for my concerts, resembling watercolor paintings or simply floating the dancers in mid-air.

Bill is great to work with. He is calm and patient. He listens and captures the vision and idea you communicated to him and translates them into imaginative graphic design.”

Rick Tagliaferri, Executive Director of the Boston Arts Academy Foundation…

“No matter what assigment or the intended audience, you’ve been able to engage people with your compelling message and design.

What I’ve always appreciated is the time you take in knowing WHO our audience is and WHAT we want them to do. And they do it!

It’s said that you don’t have a second chance with first impressions. Your creative eye has ALWAYS helped us put our best foot forward. And that makes all the difference in the world. Thank you, Bill!”
