Nathan Orsman

Nathan Orsman is a contemporary leader in both interior and exterior lighting design. His ability to sculpt with light allows him to create intrigue in otherwise unprovocative spaces which truly sets him apart from those in his field. His intuitive talents invoke the desire to approach spaces creatively while retaining their functionality.

Australian born, Orsman’s initial area of study was more mathematically focused and his first job was for the Australian Stock Exchange in the IT Department. After moving to the United States, by happy accident he started working at a lighting design firm with a focus on both the business development and creative aspects of the firm. After several years, Orsman started his own firm based out of Southampton, New York.

The past eight years since starting Orsman Design – now with offices in both Southampton and New York’s Flatiron District – has allowed Orsman to work with esoteric clients on stimulating projects that have given him the reputation he has today in the lighting community. His proclivity for lighting and uncanny ability to nurture clients’ expectations set the stage for an enchanting design process and gratifying result.

Orsman has designed for a diverse group of clients, completing large-scale projects throughout the United States and abroad including New York, the Hamptons, Florida, California, the Caribbean, London, Mexico City, and more. He has also completed commercial projects including hotels in the Caribbean and Massachusetts, the Ambassador’s residence in Dublin, a public library in Connecticut, and has been featured in designer show houses in New York, Palm Beach and Los Angeles. Notable clients include Ina Garten, Steven Colbert, Oprah Winfrey, Matt Lauer, Tommy Hilfiger, Mario Nievera, Steven Gambrel, David Scott, Victoria Hagan, Jamie Drake, David Kleinberg, Bates Masi Architects, Ferguson & Shamamian, Meyer Davis, Christensen Shipyards and David Collins Studio.

Richard Keith Langham creates pedigreed rooms that are grounded in tradition but are enlivened with his fresh and imaginative approach. His broad and varied experience enables him to work in any style as a true connoisseur. He is as adept at designing a grand Manhattan apartment as he is a rustic cabin in the mountains.

Alabama born, Manhattan-based Langham has been a force in the decorating world for over 25 years. He studied at Parsons School of Design and earned a degree from The Fashion Institute of Technology in interior design. After an apprenticeship under the uber talented Mark Hampton, he moved to London and enrolled in the Study Center for the History of Fine and Decorative Arts where he broadened his knowledge of English design and decoration.

Returning to New York, he landed a position with the venerable firm, Irvine & Fleming and gained ten years of experience in their American version of luxe English country house style. Langham launched his own business in 1994 and quickly made a splash. He worked with some of the city’s most legendary ladies – Mrs. William F. Buckley, Jr. and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who once proclaimed him to have a “sorcerer’s eye.” His stylish and comfortable rooms are loaded with lush color, pattern, and a mix of old and new with his signature couture detailing.

Langham has been recently named to Architectural Digest’s AD-100 for the fourth time, as well as Elle Decor’s A List. His work has appeared in publications too numerous to list.
