In both life and design, Laetitia Gorra, Founder and CEO of Roarke Design Studio, believes everything will fall into place. Her entrepreneurial journey has proven to be exactly that.

From assistant buyer at Bergdorf's to jewelry designer and fashion consultant, it seems one door after another opened as Laetitia followed her interests eventually leading her to designing workspaces that rethink today's workplace. Having been hired with zero experience to be the Head of Interiors at The Wing, Laetitia learned just how much the design of a space can influence how people work and what they are inspired by. In a post-pandemic world, Laetitia is redefining the workspace by going against the norms of society. By blending both functionality and beauty, Laetitia hopes to help companies get employees back into the workplace.
