Completion of Jersey Opera House
The Jersey Opera House, a Grade 2 Listed building originally designed in the late 1890s, has undergone significant refurbishment. As Lead Architects, appointed by the Government of Jersey we were responsible for preparing the feasibility, planning applications, Building Bye-Laws submissions, and all tender documentation and employer’s requirements. Our work included enhancing fire safety, accessibility, and decarbonisation, along with restoring the historic façade and auditorium design which required extension consultations with Planning and the Historical Environment Team.
The project was completed in December 2024, and we can't wait for the performances to resume!

Shortlisted for Guernsey Design Awards
Morris Architects are delighted to announce that St James’ Place has been shortlisted for the Commercial award in this year’s Guernsey Design Awards.
This exciting project was commissioned by Comprop CI to provide a new four storey 18,000 sq ft Office Development. The facade consists of curved GRC panels hung off a curtain walling frame system and the modern architectural language was meticulously developed to sit sympathetically in the local sensitive historic street scene.
