Relaxed beach vibes flow from this restaurant conversion in Avalon, NJ. We were approached by DAKU Hospitality to convert an existing two story restaurant, with a decidedly 1980s vibe, into a modern Italian restaurant. 

The design of the utilizes soft warm tones mixed with bronze and metal accents to create a relaxed Mediterranean resort aesthetic. Using textures, colors, and lighting, our team of designers carefully crafted an inviting high end dining experience, which will stand out as a destination for the Avalon summer crowds.

Working with Morrissey Design + M Architects has always been an absolute pleasure. James and his team are right on point, expedient and always prepared to listen. Their design work has been a hallmark of our execution in bringing to life what the team has provided. In my residential real estate practice, Morrissey Design has successfully worked with many of my clients. I consider James and his team to be a vital part of my design arsenal.

James has a true pulse on the community at large. He always works his projects as if he has a stake in its success and listens to our true intentions for what is created, not just how.
Chef Al Paris, Paris Bistro
When working with James and his team at M ARCHITECTS, and MORRISSEY has been a pure on-going pleasure. He is a true visionary. I asked for a modern country feel for my Japanese-themed restaurant space and he has hit a home run with his design and layout. James understands the importance of building a relationship with my investors and me to ensure complete satisfaction with clear communication.
