Rita Orland, ASID, IIDA
Certified Interior Designer

NCIDQ Certificate Number 023364


While working with Pan American World Airways, Inc., Rita was inspired by architecture, interior design, art and cultures around the globe. Her international travel career included visiting the design centers around the world, and that led to a career change to Interior Design.

Creative use of space, attention to details, and the utilization of materials appropriate to the design, characterize her interiors. A style she personally prefers is the juxtaposition of sophistication and restraint that still feels casual and inviting.

Her goal is to create satisfying interiors that reflect the personalities and lifestyles of her clients.
