Back to Portfolio

We were charged with designing an intimate yet open space that maintained the character of the existing historic building interior, while incorporating modern custom millwork and seating. Additionally, we were tasked with creating unique design elements to showcase the client’s art collection.

In order to create a more intimate experience it was important to the client that the entire culinary team can see who they are cooking for. The centerpiece of the design is an open kitchen, which features a wood-fired grill and a custom-made pasta table that sits beneath a sizeable skylight.

All of the millwork for the seating nooks on the dining room’s perimeter utilized a minimal design esthetic, as the space is bathed in natural light.

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.
