Greg,

There might be a better solution, but anyway, this is what I do on PPT:Mac

First create a presentation with design A
Second create ON A SEPARATE file the rest of the slides with design B

With the advance option selected, use the slide sorter mode, copy what you
want from presentation B and paste them (also in slide sorter view) in
presentation A.

You can move slides around. When you are on a slide from a particular
design, adding a new slide will inherit the slide design.

Hope it helps
