Back to Portfolio

Charged with creating a brand standard for the Rittenhouse Square location of Plenty Café, Morrissey Design and M Architects turned to time worn finishes, reclaimed materials and classic styling with an updated twist to bring this neighborhood gem to life. Operable windows open the interior to the street and energize the pedestrian-friendly location. A mezzanine space was recaptured to create 200 additional square-feet of varied seating. Reclaimed wide-plank wood floors and timber beams are accented by blackened metal stair rails, copper counters, a tin ceiling and antique mirrors. Playful juxtapositions such as a combination of subway tiles, hot-rolled metal sheathing and floral wallpaper in the restroom keep the interior feeling timeless yet contemporary.

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.
Christopher Plant, KISMET Chestnut Hill and KISMET Spring Arts
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.
