Liisa Pangborn, NCIDQ, LEED AP, WELL AP
Interior Designer
As an Interior Designer, I focus on creating educational environments that are welcoming, engaging, and functional.. I work closely with clients and project teams to translate their vision into environments where students, educators, and communities can thrive. Biophilic design inspires much of my work, and I carefully select nature-inspired, durable materials, finishes, and furnishings to ensure spaces are comfortable, flexible, and full of life—especially in areas where students interact with every surface daily.
I aim to create environments that are thoughtfully tailored to their users, balancing beauty, function, and durability. By incorporating WELL AP standards, I ensure air, water, lighting, and overall comfort contribute to a positive and healthy learning experience. For me, every element matters, and seeing a space come to life in a way that supports learning and fosters connection is the most rewarding part of what I do.
