DC Designer Series: Tracy Morris

One of my goals for this blog in 2009 is to feature more gorgeous interiors that aren't in magazines. To kick it off, I'm going to be focusing on talented D.C. area designers. First up is Tracy Morris of Tracy Morris Design. Love this entry above with the large sunburst mirror and the extra long parsons table. A modern sputnik style light fixture contrasts well with the more traditional elements.
The images below are from a West Palm Beach, Fl project.
This is a very interesting light fixture that really plays up the height in the room. Here again is a very long console table - this one appears to be two placed side by side. I really like that look.

Love the orange boxes!

What great style!
Her light fixtures are fabulous.
I love the custom cut rug in the kitchen!
It's wonderful to see less published designers work!

Alison Heath said...

I was taken with the light fixtures too. And I just lvoe any designer that can mix traditional and contemporary and come up with something that looks so totally gorgeous.

Thanks for sharing! There is so much great design talent in this area.

Thank you for this post! I love reading about designers I haven't heard of. Her work is gorgeous! I love the kitchen and that fabulous entry way.

I think it is a fantastic idea to feature more obscure designers. Great post!

Thank you for showing us lesser known designers from the DC (also my) area! What a wonderful idea. All of the Morris rooms are beautiful but feel very livable to me. I am really inspired. Can't wait for your next post. Also, I am subscribing today to the new magazines you recommended earlier in the week since my mailbox feels SO empty lately.

I like so many things about it all... but esp that kitchen!

Gorgeous. So much talent out there! I notice little bits of orange in this post. I am a pale shades kind of girl, but I love me some orange. : )
