About Us

Michael’s Office headquartered in Redding California has been in business since 1994, serving customers with quality products and services throughout the Northstate.  As a privately held company Michael’s represents several manufacturers with our newest relationship and product alignment being with Haworth, an internationally based manufacturer headquartered in Holland, Michigan.

With Haworth we’ve expanded our service area from the 11 most Northern California Counties to the 17 most Northern Counties. We are grateful for the confidence and trust Haworth has shown in allowing us to represent them in such a large geographical area. Haworth recognized our ability to take care of not only the large projects, but also the smaller day-to-day needs so many of our customers have come to expect, and we’ve been proud to offer. The alignment with Haworth was also based on our desired goal for change, a change to a relationship with a family-owned business who values service to the customer above all other goals or measurements. 

It should also be noted since 1948 Haworth was founded on a history of craft and innovation, with 400 patents, and inspiring spaces around the world that lead the industry in function and design. It was Haworth who had the vision, creativity, and intellect to use the core of panels as the “conduit” for running power, data, and phone cabling throughout panel-based workstations. As some would say, simple yet genius.

We look forward to serving your needs with the “Good Goods” from our aligned manufactures to help you create great places to work.

James has enjoyed serving customers most of his working life, from a UPS Driver to a Computer Technician, and several other gigs along the way. He owned his own service business in Medford, Oregon for 10 years before moving to Redding in 2013. He takes pride in delighting his customers with extraordinary service, so when the opportunity to serve the Redding community as a Workplace Consultant at Michael’s arose in early 2019, it was clearly a perfect fit.

James grew up in the Bay Area, and went to school in Portland in 1978, where he met the love of his life. They were married several years later, and recently celebrated their 39th anniversary. He enjoys being a father of four and a grandfather of three. His hobbies include gardening, kayaking, hiking, and US History. James is a lifelong learner, and he is currently working toward certification as a Chair Assessment Specialist after obtaining his certification in the use of CET Design Software. While he aspires to become a top-notch Workplace Design Consultant and Ergonomic Consultant, his greatest ambition is to be a man after God’s heart in all he does.


Paul Bryant, Installer

PAUL BRYANT

Service & Installation

Since August 2005 Paul cut his teeth on the installation side of the business in the Bay Area where he worked for a firm dedicated to just installation services. He remembers those projects in San Francisco having to work nights to get the product off the truck and into the building up how ever many floors to the end destination and then the installation followed. If Paul cannot perform an element of an installation it likely can’t be done. Paul is customer satisfaction focused and his saying is let’s go spread some awesome! It’s also a little funny how so many customers want to help Paul but truth be known just step back and go relax somewhere while Paul works his magic
