Lionel Morrison, Dallas Architect
Dallas architect, Lionel Morrison, FAIA, originally a name partner with Morrison Seifert Murphy created the largest body of modern work in Dallas. In 2010 Lionel Morrison joined Mark Dilworth, AIA, an architect he worked next to at Omniplan in the beginning of his career to form Morrison Dilworth + Walls with Carri Walls. Morrison Dilworth + Walls is a design intensive firm that takes advantage of the overlapping and distinct experience in designing award winning residences, office buildings and mixed-use projects. He is a reductionist whose austere design celebrates space, the interaction of volume and voids. His buildings painted do not distract from the space with ornamental color, generally relying on white for exterior and wall surfaces. Lionel Morrison can also be credited with introducing the first modern single-family attached home in Dallas found along the Katy Trail.

His clean, stark architecture is recognizable as is the influence of his early employer, architect E. G. Hamilton. Both Morrison and Hamilton preferred an open plan versus rooms and cubicles. Mies van der Rohe was an inspiration for both, as was the Barcelona Pavilion that had clean spaces and walls of one surface, either marble or wood. Single planes of unadorned material cutting through public and private spaces on the interior and exterior, define his buildings. His practice is equally divided between commercial and residential work, which also includes a strong practice in South America.
