Morgan Design Studio is an exceptional design firm who made our dreams become a reality! They designed our "Sorta Scandi Salt Lake" project which was a large whole level renovation - kitchen, dining, living, 2 bathrooms, etc. They took us from 1970s drab to modern Scandinavian fabulous! They took our vision - ran with it - and made it more beautiful and "us" then we could ever imagine. Plus, we were able to do the whole thing virtually! They are incredibly responsive, timely, fair priced, and flexible with creative control, but have the best design eye to refine what we were looking for. We recommend them wholeheartedly and would work with them again many times over!!

Maddy + Ashley met in 2017 while working for the same furniture company. It didn't take long for them to become best friends who dreamed of owning a design firm. In January 2022 they took the leap and started Morgan Design Studio, named after their shared middle name, Morgan.
