For her own home in New Canaan, CT, Shelley Morris gutted a mid-century, ranch style house, transforming it inside and out. Reinvisioning the exterior architectural elevation and interior floor plan, the designer orchestrated rich, textured materials including Venetian plaster walls, reclaimed wood beams, floor to ceiling mutton windows, wide plank white oak floors, painted custom millwork, and horizontal wainscot. Raising ceiling heights in most of the rooms (either cathedral or tray style), she also introduced round windows, French doors, a black granite surround fireplace, and all-new bathrooms, kitchen, plumbing and lighting. The furnishings are a layered collage of subtle textures and color.

For a family's second home, a house on the water in the Hamptons, Shelley Morris orchestrated an artful mix of unusual objects and architectural elements found in Europe. The architectural design of the new house is rooted in the Hamptons' traditional shingle style, but the interior furnishings are more global and eclectic.

A Los Angeles couple relocating to Connecticut was drawn to the bucolic setting of this house in New Canaan. Though the mid-century, quasi-Colonial structure had few striking architectural details, Shelley Morris focused on the high ceilings and ample windows to create light-filled, tranquil spaces. New arched doorways add architectural interest. The light palette in the living and dining rooms imbue the house with the feeling of a rural retreat.
