Meet the Designer behind Julie Morris Design
My Background
Hi there! My name is Julie and I am the designer and founder of Julie Morris Design. That man you see with me is my husband of 30 years and my window treatment installer. We are a team and have always lived the motto...work hard, play hard!
I've always had a passion for design and began working in the textile business at the age of 13 at a small shop on Cape Cod, called Fabric Corner. I pursued my education in textiles and design at Framingham State University. I later gained experience running an interior design shop on Newbury Street in Boston for 8 years, where we decorated the beautiful brownstones of Back Bay and Beacon Hill.
From there, I joined Calico Corners as Store Manager of their Natick, Massachusetts location, where I was able to grow the business exponentially through building an exceptional team of design consultants and offering finely crafted custom-made products for the home. Due to the success of this one location, I was offered a promotion to the corporate offices in 2001 to spearhead and lead the custom product business for Calico and its 103 locations. This was my charge for over 10 years, creating a full custom product offering nationwide, which included writing specifications and setting quality standards for custom-made window treatments, bedding, reupholstery, slipcovers, cushions, pillows and accessories. By 2013, I took on the responsibility of Merchandising and Marketing for the company, overseeing the overall aesthetics of the business and our branding. This lead to becoming 2nd in command of the company and leading all stores and operations at Calico Corners.
I later joined Kravet Fabrics as the VP of Showroom Sales for US and Canada from 2017 to 2023, selling to the Interior Design Industry.
Now, I come full circle back to the design side, helping people like you create beautiful and functional spaces that truly reflect your personal style and all that matters to you most, through design!
Julie Morris is an extremely experienced and talented designer. She spent time and attention sourcing paints, fabrics and wallpapers. Her attention to detail is beyond compare. She made smart suggestions while respecting my taste and preferences. The results are wonderful! On a scale of 1-5? 6!
