A Sense of Place
Some places stay on the surface.
Others live in your bones.
Maine is that kind of place—raw, seasonal, grounding, alive. It doesn’t ask for perfection. It asks for presence. Our work begins there.
We design homes that feel rooted to their land and honest to the people inside them. Spaces that hold quiet mornings, loud gatherings, changing light, and the long arc of real life.
This is not about trends or decoration.
It’s about creating environments that deepen with time—filled with materials that age beautifully and objects meant to be kept, used, and handed forward.
Because home should feel like it belongs to you.
And like you belong to it.
Jenny Morrison’s design story began on construction sites, working inside her family’s general contracting business and witnessing the delicate balance between what is built and what is felt. She was drawn less to perfection and more to meaning—to the way thoughtful design can turn structure into story.
After completing formal design training, she founded Morrison Design House to create homes that feel grounded, intuitive, and deeply connected to the people who inhabit them.
Jenny approaches every project from the client’s point of view. She listens closely, adapts freely, and allows each home to evolve around real life rather than a fixed aesthetic—while still carrying the quiet, natural sensibility that defines MDH. Her work is less about decoration and more about atmosphere, memory, and the feeling of belonging somewhere fully.
When she isn’t designing, she is usually outside—hiking wooded trails, traveling to new landscapes, or photographing the fleeting light and textures that make a place unforgettable. These moments of attention and movement are woven into every home she creates.
