A LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT
Dear ASID Chapter:
“ASID Minnesota
continues to move
forward with the
second year of our
strategic plan.”
This edition of Design Directions is
dedicated to the winners of our local
chapter awards. Congratulations to
all who participated and especially
to those who won. We are pleased to
celebrate excellent design in our vibrant
community. This year’s judges were an
exceptional group with Paul Taylor of
Trends magazine, Leslie Newsom Rascoe
of Veranda magazine, a former ASID MN member, Julie Leufvenius, and William
Olafsen, from Chicago. The judges spent a full day reviewing our 99 awards — quite a
task for anyone.
“Industrial Chic” was the theme for our annual awards hosted by Jennifer Blaise
Kraemer, of Minneapolis St. Paul Magazine and Dez of KS95 Radio. Thank you to
our Awards Competition and Awards Gala committees and to all of our Industry
Partners for this very special evening.
ASID Minnesota continues to move forward with the second year of our strategic
plan. ASID leads collaboration with those working to promote the value of interior
design. ASID prepares its members to excel in dynamic and evolving profession
competing in a global market place. The ASID Minnesota public relations committee
has worked diligently to identify and send a specific unified ASID brand message.
The ASID ads, published in the Mpls.St.Paul Home & Design Magazine, and
displayed on the television monitor in the ASID office, speak volumes for our
industry.
ASID Minnesota team is projecting growth this year. As we cultivate new members,
while retaining our existing ones, we not only grow our chapter, but build
relationships and a solid society. The second annual Design Week, in which ASID is
a sponsor with Midwest Home magazine, will launch February 16th. Design Week
features a keynote speaker and is a week-long event.
Lastly, we hope for legislation to approve licensure for ASID designers. This
important step will allow interior designers to be equal to our other industry
professionals. We have certainly prepared a path for success with education,
continuing education units, and our many hours devoted to health, safety and
welfare of the public.
Best regards,
ANGELA PARKER
President

A LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT-ELECT
Dear ASID Chapter,
“It’s going to be a
privilege guiding us
through the next
two years.”
Well, here we are at the beginning of a
new term. I’m your new President-elect
for the Minnesota chapter. It’s going
to be a privilege guiding us through
the next two years. I’ve discovered
already how busy and involved many
of you are in our chapter; one of the
best in the country. So many of you are
active behind the scenes on the many
committees that do so much of the work that makes our chapter great (excluding
Tabitha’s hard work, of course.) I hope the next two years will only increase that
participation. Sharing and interacting with your colleagues is so important; helping
us to focus and direct us in the future, while still having fun along the way.
One of our own, Rachelle Schoessler Lynn, FASID, is the new National President
for the coming year. How’s that for a team?
We have just celebrated another wonderful Awards Gala showing to the world some
of our best wares and talents from our chapter. This year we had more entries than
ever and some wonderfully qualified judges. Two were well known and experienced
designers with excellent credentials, William Olafsen from Chicago and Julie
Leufvenius, ASID, from Naples, and two were editors for design magazines, Leslie
Newsom Rascoe from Veranda and Paul Taylor from Trends. The awards, gala and
sponsorship committees worked hard to prepare a fun-filled evening for all of us.
Thanks to the judges for their very hard and judicious work and to everyone who
entered. Thanks also to our wonderful sponsors who are instrumental in making
this happen. A special thanks to our hosts Jennifer Blaise Kramer from Mpls.
St.Paul Magazine and Dez from KS95 Radio. A really fun night with great food,
drink and camaraderie was had by all. So sorry everyone can’t be a winner, but
“congratulations” go out to all of those who did win.
Sincerely,
bruce kading
President-Elect

Kitchen and Bath Business Luncheon Panel
MINNESOTA
By Kate Lewis, Allied ASID
At the October ASID business development meeting, a panel of
Kitchen & Bath (K&B) designers was formed to offer their expertise
to their interior design colleagues. Moderated by Julie Dasher, the
panel consisted of the following: Rosemary Merrill, Industry Partner
& Representative for Casa Verde; Mary Maney, ASID, Crystal Kitchen
Center; Andrea Dixon, Allied ASID, Fiddlehead Design; and Mary
Jane Pappas, ASID, Pappas Design. They were asked a series of
questions about what is trending, what is the process of working with
a K&B designer and what challenges are they facing in the current
environment. This was the third in a 3-part series of design panels
held throughout the year. The first was a panel of architects and the
second was comprised of builders and remodelers. The primary goal
was for designers to gain valuable information in areas that are not
necessarily their expertise.
Working with a K&B designer can add value to a project because they
will take care of the measuring, ordering and installation. They can
assist the designer in researching how the client lives. Understanding
how the equipment works, aging in place, and living green are just
a few of the many areas the designer needs to be aware of in order
to create a cohesive design. The K&B designer has the knowledge
and daily experience to ensure that the process goes smoothly. The
primary focus is to collaborate with the client to get the design they
desire without feeling like they are paying everyone. There was
dialogue around the pros and cons of using custom verses stock
cabinets, who supplies what in the design, and the variety of ways
designers can be compensated.
What trends does the panel see in kitchen and bath design? Subway
tile remains popular, as well as Cambria and quartz countertops,
soapstone countertops, more honed finishes, painted wood and
varying colors in cabinetry. At the conclusion of the discussion, the
group gathered around construction drawings shared by Mary Jane
Pappas. This gave designers a better understanding of the numerous
facets that go into kitchen and bath design. The devil is in the details
and working with a K&B designer can help minimize those problems
that often occur in the design process.

DAYLIGHT, ARTFULLY EXPRESSED
Styles that dress every
window in the best light.
Silhouette Window Shadings
The weather is warm, the sun is bright, and it’s the perfect time for
your customers to show off their style with elegant light-diffusing
window fashions from Hunter Douglas. Silhouette® window shadings,
Pirouette® window shadings and Luminette® Privacy Sheers offer a
variety of ways to beautifully diffuse light into the room while helping
filter out ultraviolet rays that could damage interior furnishings and
keeping homes cooler during the warmer months.
Silhouette window shadings
Like the subtle cast their name suggests, Silhouette window shadings,
with the Signature S-Vane™, easily create beautiful gradations of light
and shadow. Soft fabric vanes are suspended between two sheers,
diffusing softened light deep into the room. The vanes can be tilted
for varying degrees of privacy while maintaining ultraviolet protection.
Pirouette window shadings
Uniquely designed with soft, horizontal fabric vanes attached to a
single sheer backing, Pirouette window shadings control light in an
entirely new way. The vanes expand to filter natural light or contract
for a perfect view of the outside. Our revolutionary Invisi-Lift™ system
enables the vanes to float gracefully, and even opened, they offer
ultraviolet protection and reduced glare with the sheer backing.
Luminette Privacy Sheers and Modern Draperies
Luminette Privacy Sheers
Similar to Silhouette and Pirouette window shadings, but in a vertical
orientation, Luminette Privacy Sheers feature crisp fabric vanes set
between translucent sheer facing, marrying elegance with precise
light control. The vanes rotate for varying levels of privacy, while the
soft fabric sheers beautifully diffuse sunlight into the room. Perfect
for large expanses of windows and sliding glass doors, Luminette
fabrics are also available for creating coordinated overtreatments
and decorative room accessories.

How to Get Noticed by the Media
MINNESOTA
By Kate Lewis, Allied ASID and Colleen Slack, Allied ASID
How does an interior designer get their project published in a local and/or national magazine? The secrets were revealed to everyone who
attended the ASID MN PR media event on October 24, sponsored by Painterati and Pro Source. Keynote speaker Amy Panos, Senior Editor
Home Design of Better Homes & Gardens (BH&G) magazine, gave attendees first-hand tips and tricks on how to raise their odds of getting
published. With an audience of 36 million readers, the average BHG reader is female, age 48, with a young growing family and a medium income
of $63,524. Panos said their goal is to attract younger readers while still appealing to empty nesters. She stressed that BHG is not a “design,”
but a “lifestyle” magazine, with emphasis on showing the reader how to create a meaningful, beautiful and creative life at home. The magazine’s
motto, “It’s where life happens,” exemplifies this mission. With a special focus on entertaining, the magazine shows the reader how decorating
and entertaining go hand in hand. Panos offered a list of criteria that will help your projects get noticed by the BH&G editors.
1. Relaxed but refined family homes. “The home does not have to be designed within an inch of its
life,” said Panos. “We want to see the way the family lives in
their home.” Projects should highlight the family’s lifestyle,
showing flexibility and a sense of casualness. There is a “Better
Living” section in the magazine where they dissect the room
and share design ideas.
2. Kitchens with color. She said they receive an abundance of white kitchens, since
it is a very popular design style, but the projects that really
stand out to the editors are those with pops of color. They
are looking for suburban kitchens with a mix of color on the
cabinetry, interesting wood or tile, and texture.
3. Small bath makeovers. They are looking for projects with a sense of refresh and reuse.
Design that shows ways to maximize space, add character and
incorporate decorative details appeal to
their readership.
4. Outdoor living.
Twenty to thirty percent of the editorial content in BH&G is
about gardens. Patios, porches and decks that function like
indoor rooms are very desirable.
Dos & Don’ts
5. Rooms full of smart ideas, DIY and design lessons.
“Makeover” projects are particularly popular with BH&G and
their readership. Showcasing how a thrifted piece was updated
helps the reader see how she can recreate a room with a piece
she found in a second hand store. When pitching a project,
highlight an element that brings the clients’ personality into
the room and shows how they were smart in their choices,
saving and splurging wisely.
• DO take a lot of Before and In-Progress photos. Good digital
photos styled appropriately are fine for submission.
• DO take After photos. Photos do not have to be styled to
complete perfection. They want to see how people really live.
DO NOT think it is a requirement these photos are taken by
a professional photographer.
• DO find out how willing the homeowners are to be involved.

6. Small spaces. Many readers live in small spaces, so they are seeking projects
that show how to pack function and style in a room with
limited square footage. How do you make the space cohesive
and feel bigger?
7. Entertaining ideas. Do you have a client or know someone who is great at
entertaining? The BH&G staff is looking for unique and
authentic ideas about how to entertain in style. They have
twelve style issues to fill, so they are always looking for fresh
concepts that are new and different.
8. Polished casual. Panos said this is the “Holy Grail” for BH&G. They like
family friendly spaces that help their reader understand what
makes color work. Using color in a big way, not just on accent
pillows, helps readers take the leap beyond beige. Projects
using traditional furniture styles with a modern twist and
painted furniture, slipcovers, texture, worn wood, antiques
and farmhouse elements are popular at BH&G. A global mix is
very desirable; projects that incorporate a traveled and eclectic
look complete with ethnic and animal prints. Design that
takes widely different styles and shows how to pull them all
together. They receive many projects with blues and greens, so
if the designer has a palette that goes beyond this, it may get
noticed by the editors. The “chic country cottage” look is still a
mainstay, but above all, they are looking for projects that show
the personality of the homeowner.
The designers who attended this event walked away with key ideas
about getting their projects published in BH&G.
During the second hour, representatives from Artful Living, Midwest
Homes, MSP Magazine and Spaces talked about ideas for designers
shoot will show them casually living in their space. DO NOT
promise they will be photographed.
• DO let the editors know why you think this is a great story
for BH&G. Put your editorial hat on and think about the
story perspective. What is unique about this makeover and
what obstacles did the client overcome? Provide the family
background to help the editors pull the story together
and bring the reader in. DO NOT be upset if the story
angle changes.
How to Get Noticed by the Media
to get their work published in local media. Mark Ehlen Creative
Communications and Red Leaf talked about the media support
services they offer for designers. Here are some of the highlights.
ARTFUL LIVING MAGAZINE — Frank Roffers, Founder

Upper Midwest

• Oversized format, remarkable covers, superior paper, fit
and finish

digital, pinterest, e newsletters, videos, events and
media appearances.
• Interested in the same types of projects as BH&G. Their key

Midwest sensibility.
• Humanity — they like to show the people that live in their
homes. Real faces tied to local areas.
• New partnership with Edina Realty brings additional circulation
MIDWEST HOME — Sara Soli, Business Development Manager &
Jennifer Mcalpin, New Business Development Manager
• Guide to Good Design 2013 — they focus on one association
per publication which creates an opportunity to brand yourself.
• Design Week February 16-23, 2014. This is an opportunity for
designers to participate in workshops and networking. The
keynote speaker will be announced soon.
Project submissions criteria:
• Must have been completed in the last 3 years and have
a strong MN connection
• Digital images and/or a link to photos (before and after)
• Submitters name and role, contact information
• Project location, completion date and description.
SPACES — Kathy Severson, Publisher. Owned by the Pioneer Press
• They hold 3 editorial previews per year where designers can
pitch their portfolios. Designs are selected based on the merit
of the project, not whether you advertise. Editorial integrity is
very important. Theme of the issue is key:

EHLEN CREATIVE COMMUNICATIONS — Mark Ehlen, Owner

commercial projects.

• Electronic resource preparation and organization
• Layout for project highlight page
• Web-based project highlight page
• Ideas and execution for promoting your project beyond the
submission process.
Keynote Speaker: Amy Panos
• DO put your project on your website. There is no conflict to
publish it in local magazines, trade publications, on your
blog or in your portfolio. DO NOT pitch it to a major blog,
national magazine or website such as Houzz. This could be a
deal breaker.
• DO contact BH&G’s local Field Editor, Megan Kaplan. She is
a great resource. If you send her a sneak peek of your project,
she will scout it here and help you pull together a package
to send on. You can contact her at [email protected].
Phone: 612-877-2949.
• DO practice patience. More often than not, it will take
several months for the editors to make a decision. DO NOT
be offended if BH&G brings a stylist for a photo shoot. They
always do. DO NOT be surprised if your project turns up in
another magazine owned by Meredith Corporation, as they
will own the rights to your photos.

Dunwoody’s Interior Design Program
MINNESOTA
By Colleen Slack, Allied ASID
We regret that Dunwoody was not included in “Profiles of
Interior Design Programs at Area Schools” in the fall issue of
Design Directions.
Dunwoody
»W
hat is the focus of your program? Are there new technologies and/or
skills you highlight?
Dunwoody’s Interior Design program is a professional,
applied education with an emphasis on collaboration, critical
thinking, and technology, leading to a Bachelor of Science
degree in Interior Design. The faculty is comprised of working
professionals who are passionate about the field of design as
well as student success. We are committed to upholding the
standards of the Council for Interior Design Accreditation
(CIDA), and Dunwoody is accredited through the year 2019.
We are a private, non-profit college with a program that values
hands on learning driven by the words of our founder, William
Hood Dunwoody, in 1914 to “provide for all time a place where
youth without distinction on account of race, color or religious
prejudice, may learn the useful trades and crafts, and thereby
fit themselves for the better performance of life’s duties.”
Our students practice hands on learning by utilizing hand
rendering, drafting, and building furniture and models in
our materials lab with power tools. We also are passionate
about technology. Dunwoody Interior Design students master
drafting and BIM using AutoCAD and Revit, model making
with Revit, Sketch Up, and 3D Printing, and rendering with
Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. The use and application
of design theories, interior materials, building codes, cost
analysis, site visits, and project management software
are also an important part of preparing our students for a
career in Interior Design. Design studios foster an engaging
environment where creative problem solving is emphasized.
Students also participate in cross disciplinary design charettes
with their design and construction peers. This holistic, career
based approach prepares the student to be a productive,
successful professional.

» W
hat is the size of your program (number of students)?
Our class size is from 14 to 24 with a total student population
of not more than 96 in the program.
» D o you have an ASID Student chapter, and if so, how often do they meet/
what do they do? (Ex. bringing in a speaker for lunch meetings)
We have a student group, the Interior Design Student Society
that meets every month at lunch. There is no cost and all
students participate. Additionally, our students may choose to
join ASID, IIDA, IFDA, or NEWH individually. We have tours,
site visits, and guest speakers. We participate in events like
CANstruction, a charity benefitting Second Harvest Heartland
at the Mall of America — where we won Honorable Mention
last year for “Build Minneapolis,” Fashion/Fusion — where
last year we won “Best Use of ZeroLandfill,” and Women Build.
