Orion was designed to be practical, elegant and most of all a ship..not a hotel. "The Gallery" The alcoves were designed as private writing areas while the armchairs, sofas and coffee tables provided a comfortable place while being out of the way of the passing traffic. The flooring was the Australian hardwood Jarrah with fixed rugs by Marion Dorn.

"The Nursery" Many a happy hour was spent here dreaming of being the Captain.
