TLS Interior Design stands at the intersection of art and functionality, breathing life and beauty into both residential and commercial spaces. With a firm belief echoing the ethos of Louis Kahn—that beauty emerges from a tapestry of selection, affinities, integration, and love—this interior design firm excels at creating environments that are not just visually stunning, but also eminently functional and filled with character. The founder, Teri, brings to life her Wisconsin heritage and a profound admiration for historic Midwestern architecture by integrating time-honored design principles into contemporary living and working spaces. Her approach is anchored in the belief that design should be as practical as it is beautiful, leveraging the philosophy that "form follows function" to guide her creative decisions.

Teri's professional journey in the A&D industry spans over three decades, marked by a steadfast dedication to forging genuine relationships and upholding her design values. She holds a BS in Architecture from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, complemented by a Professional Certificate in Interior Design from Scottsdale Community College. In her pursuit of excellence, Teri obtained the prestigious NCIDQ certificate, licensing her as a professional interior designer. Her commitment extends to her involvement in the community as a professional member of ASID where she contributes her expertise as the Professional Development Director on the local chapter board. Beyond her professional life, Teri is an aficionado of global travel, familial connections, glass artistry, and the simple pleasures of a good cocktail by the poolside among friends, all of which enrich her creativity and vision as the guiding force behind TLS Interior Design.
