In order to - word position in the sentences
I saw people while talking or writing sometime begin the sentence with in order to and some time they use in order to at the end.
I often get confused when to use it in the beginning or at the end of the sentence. Can anyone please help me understand.
In order to choose the best design I met a design and he advised me to pick the one that reflect the design that I have on one of my clothes.
I met a designer in order to choose the best design and he advised me to pick the one that reflect the design that I have on one of my clothes.

I believe you are essentially asking about the difference between: a) "In order to X, someone did Y" b) "Someone did Y in order to X" Both patterns are possible. There is little difference in actual meaning, but pattern (a) may place more emphasis on the "in order to X" part. There are various small mistakes throughout your sentences.

In order to = To get to x, z must be done as required by rule. Sometimes, "for someone" is inserted between the idiomatic phrase to personalize the case. My understanding is this: The X to Z ( as used in previous posts) pattern can be reversed and still retain the same core meaning, relatively speaking.
A -In order [for you] to
A -In order [for you] to

After I hit "post" in my last post, I realized, I made a hasty mistake and would make to a correction.
In example A, the green highlight is not the main clause but an adverbial phrase modifying the main clause in black.

Ok thanks for your explanation, I understood the concept but I still have few more questions for.
What difference does the "in order to" creates when used in the beginning of the sentence and in the middle of the sentences.
Which format is most commonly used while speaking or writing?
I heard that in order

As I mentioned earlier, both forms are used. You are correct, " in order to ..." is more common idiomatically speaking. The phrase basicaly means " as needed ".
In order to meet a 15% production increase next year, we are planning to hire two more workers. The reciprocated form can be used without a comma. Please note, the underlined is still a subordinate clause functioning adverbiall
