Studio

Morrisstudio is the London-based H&G Top 100 interior design firm founded by director Tom Morris in 2018. Having spent more than a decade working as a design writer and critic before setting up the business, Tom takes a journalist’s more considered approach to creating homes. There is a natural attraction to things with a story rather than interest in just style alone.

Craft is at the studio’s core. Its projects are defined by the handmade and the individual — places where practical needs are put first and the human hand is always felt.

Service

Morrisstudio offers a variety of services to meet the particular needs of each client ranging from the commissioning of bespoke objects, consulting on the use of space to devising and executing the interior design masterplan of an entire house.

We work predominately in residential design and on few projects at any given time, meaning each home we create is looked after in detail in a usually collaborative process with a close network of craftspeople.

The studio is currently working on projects in London, Sussex and Suffolk and its first commercial project in Covent Garden.
