About the 2015 DXV Design Panel

Jun 4, 2015

In 2014, DXV by American Standard established an online and print community for designers, architects, and creative individuals to inspire their peers and discuss their experience with the products in the real world.

In 2015, DXV Design Counsel Veronika Miller, CEO of Modenus, worked together with a talented group of seven interior designers/bloggers to craft five uniquely creative spaces that showcased the DXV by American Standard line.

These 2015 Design Panel members were challenged to create a bath or kitchen design concept drawing upon the DXV portfolio of products and guided by the premise of Reinventing the Classics, formulating a visual translation of a well-known piece of literature.

These projects will be published in the Decade XV magalog and on the DXV website (dxv.com).

LISA MENDE

Lisa Mende Design, Charlotte, North Carolina

Lisa Mende calls her design “connected design” which is to say that her work involves layers that speak to the client’s lifestyle, needs and desires, as well as to the history or architecture of the space. Born and raised in the South, she now practices in Charlotte, North Carolina. Lisa’s designs are always about hospitality, rooted in tradition, yet having a sense of humor, a bit of drama, or an element of quirkiness. Cookie-cutter design is clearly not in Lisa’s vocabulary.

Lisa has been the principal of Lisa Mende Design for over 20 years and her projects range from historic preservation to new construction. Lisa is also a newly appointed member of Thermador’s Design Council 2015. In addition, she is a member of Design Trust of New York City, the American Society of Interior Designers, WithIt, and IDS Design Style.
