Morgante Wilson Architects
EVANSTON, IL
T
he principals at Morgante-Wilson approach architecture like
you would a language. To understand it, you must learn the
rules, and once you're fluent, the creativity begins. Started more
than 30 years ago, the Illinois-based firm has become versed in a
wide range of styles and is undoubtedly fluent. The team moves
easily between design, construction, and renovation—but it
doesn't stop there. Morgante-Wilson also includes an interior
design group that creates custom furniture to suit the most specific
needs.
Led by husband and wife Fred Wilson and Elissa Morgante, the
firm designs homes that have one thing in common: livability. The
houses are practical, comforting, and meant to be lived in. Each
home speaks to the homeowners' specific needs and addresses
their lifestyle. The entire process is an exchange of ideas, but
begins by the principals listening to and understanding the
homeowners.
