HI, I’M MARGARET!

MEET
MARGARET ROHR

PRINCIPAL DESIGNER

BACK STORY

Born and raised in the Deep South, Margaret has always had a passion for good decorating and beautiful spaces. Growing up in Alabama, everything revolved around the family home. Entertaining, celebrating, and relaxing all happened at home; it became a major focus of her energy, love, and attention.

PROFESSIONAL LIFE

Margaret earned her undergraduate degree from Birmingham-Southern College and then attended The New York Institute of Art and Design, where she earned her certification in Interior Design. After college, marriage, kids, and several careers, she decided to pursue the passion that had been brewing for twenty years. Ready to start a new business to help people refresh, renew, and redecorate their homes, Margaret embarked on her career in interior decorating. Having worked on many, many homes over the years, she has gained knowledge in renovating older homes, making the blank slate of a brand-new house feel like home, and jazzing up old, tired interiors -- she has done it all.

PASSION & PERSONALITY

Margaret Rohr brings passion and enthusiasm to every job, and many clients become lifelong friends. She prides herself on having an affordable yet professional response to each client's individual needs. Based in Sarasota, Florida, Margaret can serve her home area in person and is also willing to help those in need in surrounding towns. Thanks to modern technology, she can virtually serve clients from anywhere! So if you like what you see, don't let location be a boundary. Reach out!

Using your style as your guidepost, you'll create a usable space tailored to your taste, wants, and needs with Margaret.

Prior to working in interior decorating, Margaret ran a portrait studio, through which she honed many skills that have developed her eye for good decorating: scale, composition, use of color, contrast, good lighting, and pattern mixing. She enjoys taking form and function and making it beautiful. Using a client's own style as inspiration, she aims to create a comfortable, inviting space that never feels overdone. And at the end of the day, the most important thing to Margaret is that you LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE.

  • Margaret has done a fantastic job helping me to furnish and decorate my new home in Sarasota. I moved here from 'Up North' with very little furniture, so it has been a 'blank canvas' project. Margaret is a delight to work with: she's collaborative, practical (the most expensive option isn't always the best!), responsive, and really listens to understand your style and budget. I so appreciate Margaret's ideas, energy, and partnership in helping me create the kind of home I was hoping for!

  • We bought our home in Sarasota a year ago. Since then, we have happily relied on Dalton Reed's Margaret Rohr as our interior designer and informal guide to other reputable service professionals in the area. Margaret has a sophisticated, knowledgeable design sense and deep familiarity with every high-quality furniture brand on the market. Taking her cues from our tastes…Margaret has helped us create a stunning and comfortable home in a very price-conscious fashion. Bringing her trademark Southern charm and positive energy, Margaret has been a complete joy to work with for my husband and me.

  • Our experience in working with Dalton Reed Interiors and Margaret Rohr was extremely positive. After recently completing a custom build with basic furnishings, we needed design expertise to add the finishing touches to make our house a home. Margaret's keen eye and sense of style meshed perfectly with our taste. Her resources are extensive and invaluable, and she assisted us in selecting everything from fine artwork to accessories, to custom linens, pillows, and more! Her help with selecting furniture and accessories for our extensive outdoor space completed the picture, and spending time with her was a highlight of the process!
