COLLABORATION

We collaborate with the project team to handle the details and maintain the momentum, so our clients can truly enjoy the journey.

SANDY LAMENDOLA
ASID, Design Principal

“Communication and collaboration are essential to great design.”

Sandy’s experience in the Interior Design field is seasoned with degrees in both Home Economics in Business from University of Wisconsin-Stout and a BS in Interior Design from the University of Minnesota. That, coupled with her NCIDQ Certification, ASID Chapter Presidency term and nearly 30 years in the business, makes her as smart and savvy as she is instinctual and inspired.

Sandy believes the truest predictor of success is that the client has fun. When the process is a pleasure, great results are almost guaranteed. Sandy knows how to get there – and how wonderful the ride can be.

EMILY BERRY
Designer

“What I love about design is how personal, as well as how varied, it is.”

To create an environment that’s for the client, and only for them, says Emily, “Designers have to be able to step outside of their comfort zone, learn new things, and think in fresh ways. For me, that makes every project exciting.” Emily’s fondness for residential design stems from her early experience helping her family plan a new home. “From the very beginning, my goal has been to create environments where a person or family really wants to be at the end of the day.”

Acting on a sense of direction instilled in her life, Emily studied interior design at North Dakota State University and has been an integral member of the Twist team for much of her career.

SARAH MORRISETTE
Designer

“Listening skills are essential for a designer to understand what kinds of problems we’re trying to solve for a client.”

Drawing on her experience in both the residential and commercial worlds, Sarah combines a deep baseline knowledge of design principles and resources with a talent for listening and an ability to translate clients’ needs and passions into an environment they can call their own.

Sarah’s own passion is fueled in part by the challenge of bringing together the disparate components of design into a cohesive whole. “I love the process of taking a project from conception to completion, and seeing how all our efforts yield a result that’s as practical as it is personal,” she says. Sarah earned her Interior Design degree from the University of Minnesota.
