Meet Maggie
OWNER AND CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Growing up with an interior designer mom, Maggie always knew she’d follow in her footsteps. From rearranging her bedroom as a child to corporate retail, her career journey has been driven by a relentless passion for design and a knack for process and organization.
Moving to a fixer-upper in 2019, she transformed the "ugliest house on the street" into a stunning home, setting the foundation for Maggie Morton Design Studio.
With a degree in Business and a Minor in Art from Elon University and six years in corporate, Maggie refined her proficiency in collaboration and detailed analysis. Today, she designs timeless homes that reflect the unique personality and lifestyle of her clients, using her signature aesthetic—a vibrant twist on traditional design—adored by so many of her clients.
My Design Philosophy
“Though I am wildly passionate about patterns and colors, my approach to design goes beyond mere creativity. Everything I do is rooted in structure, strategy, and process. Initially drawn to design for its aesthetic elements, I soon realized that truly great design is about creating spaces that are not only beautiful but also efficient and functional. Everything has a place, and everything has a process. My goal is to transform your home into a harmonious, calm environment that alleviates the overwhelm.”

when not designing
I’m on the sports field with my kids, traveling with my family, or listening to podcasts. I’m a podcast junkie!

Free time
As a busy mom, I don’t have much free time. But if I did, I’d go to a museum, spend a day in NYC or DC, read more books, make something with my hands, garden and cook more.
