Payne obtained his bachelor\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s degree in physics and mathematics from Southampton University in England. Following 10 years in the computer industry, during which he was transferred from England to the United States, he pursued a career in interior design and graduated from the UCLA interior design program in 1980. In the same year, he founded Michael Payne Design, which offers interior design services to clients on a national and international basis and is involved with projects featured on \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Designing for the Sexes.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Designing for the Sexes\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is a television program that helps a different couple each week resolve conflicts as they tackle a home or room renovation project. The program follows the couple in design trouble and witnesses an interior designer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s creative approach to bring their fabulous project to completion.<\/p>\n
In 2004, Payne also entered into a furniture design partnership with the Powell Company and the initial \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Michael Payne Collection\u00e2\u20ac\u009d was introduced in 2012. Since then, seven diverge groups, each with a different design theme and inspiration have been introduced.<\/p>\n
