James Morris
All design should tell a story. Whether establishing/maintaing a corporate brand, preserving the character of a historic building, or by conveying a particular feeling in a space. My passion is to find that story. It can be found in new construction’s clean slate, or in maintaining the authenticity, and integrity of original construction. All stories should have a happy ending and all spaces should be a beautiful inviting environment.
