Danielle Lardani
Senior Kitchen & Bath Designer
Hardworking, creative, and service-minded, Danielle is the third generation of her family to be involved in the design industry. As a small child, she was fascinated by the blueprints that her father brought home from the commercial drywall and plaster company that was founded by her grandfather. It was there that her love of design was first sparked!
After completing her AAS degree in Interior Design, Danielle continued her studies at the Florence Design Academy in Italy. During her studies in Europe, her passion was ignited when she realized that the kitchen was truly the heart of the home – and that became her inspiration to take the NKBA accredited program in Kitchen and Bath Design upon her return to the US.
A true “people person,” Danielle’s outgoing nature puts her clients at ease and fosters many lasting relationships! In each project, her goal is two-fold: to ensure that her client’s finished space truly reflects them, and that they feel taken care of throughout the entire process.
When Danielle’s not measuring a space for her newest design, you can find her, snowmobiling up north (weather permitting!), laughing with friends over a good meal (Italian, of course!) or enjoying her morning breve with cinnamon and honey.
Danielle is currently spending time getting to know her first child! She looks forward to taking on new projects again in July.

Bre Perrigo
Kitchen & Bath Designer
Little did Bre know when she struck up a conversation with her seatmate (who happened to be Studio M Kitchen & Bath General Manager Kelly Davert) on a flight several years ago that their relationship would blossom into an enduring career mentorship, leading to Bre’s dream job here at Studio M Kitchen & Bath.
Bre grew up in the remodeling business in Fargo, North Dakota, often accompanying her father to job site visits. Her powerful work ethic was influenced, in part, by observing her parents and their commitment to always being honest, trustworthy and living up to expectations. Bre loved hands-on work, regardless of whether it was with a tool belt or gathering fabric swatches. After earning her BA in Interior Design, Bre moved to the Twin Cities to launch her career.
After starting out in home design product sales, Bre transitioned to cabinetry design and soon found her passion. She places a high priority on building strong relationships with her clients and asking the right questions to learn how they live – or want to live - in their home. Her designs reflect their visions and enhance the functionality of each space.
When she’s not working, Bre enjoys being on the water with family and friends in the summer, and vacationing in warm places in the winter. But most of all she loves spending time with her husband and their black lab, Pyper.

Brynne Hempel, Allied ASID
Kitchen & Bath Designer
Years before it became popularized on HGTV, Brynne’s grandparents purchased and renovated historic homes in southeastern Minnesota, often lived in them for a while, then sold them. They “flipped” homes well before the term was coined.
This love for home renovation was passed down to Brynne, who obtained her degree in interior design from Oregon State University. She has been in the kitchen and bath industry for 10 years: five years in design and sales, followed by five years as a cabinet rep for several product lines.
After learning “both sides” of the cabinetry business, she found that her passion fell firmly in the realm of design. She came to Studio M K&B on the recommendation of Danee Bohn, who knew of Brynne’s talent. Both Danee and Brynne were awarded the National Kitchen and Bath Association’s “NKBA 30 Under 30 Award” in 2015.
Brynne begins her work with clients by really getting to know them. Her friendly, approachable, and easy-going manner makes the conversation natural – and it helps Brynne understand exactly what her clients need to make their new space work for them. Brynne firmly believes that function is priority no. 1, and her designs reflect this commitment.
When Brynne is not at Studio M, you can find her enjoying time with her husband, Randy, their young son, Tristan, and three cuddly cats. In their “free” time, Brynne and her husband are following in her family’s footsteps by renovating their own historic home in Minneapolis.
