When William Morris could find no house that lived to his standards he commisioned Philip Webb(1831-1915) to design what became known as the Red House (1859-60). A Medieval domestic vernacular. A very straight forward approch to to structures using his friends in collaberation founding Morris, Marshal, Faulkner, and Co. in 1862.

morris cove

the nice part of new haven. absolutely nothing like the ghetto. close to east haven. but people from there are not from east haven. very hard to explain where you live when people do not know what or where "the cove" is. we need to make it known we don't live in the slums, or east haven.

"Hey, where are you from?"
"Oh, I live in morris cove."
"Where's that?"
"Look it up on urbandictionary."
