As head of the Food & Beverage studio, Keith lives and breathes the nuances and intricacies of restaurant flow, balancing layout with operational concerns with material detailing in every project he leads. He and partner Marites Abueg have designed over 100 restaurants, bars, cafes and commissaries. As the technical lead on the team, Keith has been called the resident “systems geek” by clients who know how much he loves the electrical, equipment, utilities, and exhaust systems that make a restaurant operate efficiently.
Keith Morris fell in love with architecture at the age of 8 when he first visited St. Peter’s Cathedral in Rome, and has never looked at the built environment the same.
When he isn’t digging deeply into hood specs or egress requirements, Keith can be found playing the drums, dancing at EDM concerts, riding bikes, and enjoying the Bay Area’s food scene. He holds a Bachelor’s of Architecture and a first-degree black belt in Karate.
