"It was a delight working with Runo on our workplace relocation. She helped reduce the complexity of moving with her excellent project management skills and process; from planning to final execution. After the move, she helped optimize our workspace to meet our company's needs and later followed up to ensure that all aspects of the move were finalized. I highly recommend her company - Elo Spaces."

“Runo is a passionate project executive you can count on to deliver a spectacular space that fits your needs. I was on the client side working with Runo to build out a warehouse for ChromeOS at Google. She spent time with my team understanding how we operated in our current warehouse spaces and our vision for how we wanted to operate in a newer, larger space. With this knowledge, she brought a number of excellent design options to the table, always keeping the user and optimal workflows in mind. I would recommend Runo to anyone looking for a project executive who will go above and beyond to design a stellar space to suit your needs. I would work with her again in a heartbeat!”
