Frelinghuysen Morris House and Studio, Modernist art museum in Lenox, United States.

The Frelinghuysen Morris House and Studio is a Bauhaus-style studio built in 1930 by George L.K. Morris and George Sanderson, with a house added in 1941 by architect John Butler Swann. The studio, inspired by Le Corbusier, is one of Massachusetts' oldest Modernist buildings; the house is an early example of Mid-Century Modern architecture. The property sits on part of the former Brookhurst estate, which retains Renwick-designed outbuildings.

The land was part of Brookhurst, a country estate William Bainbridge Shattuck began developing in 1885 with architect James Renwick Jr.; the main house burned in 1908. Newbold Morris then built a Colonial Revival mansion, and after Helen Morris died in 1956 George Morris inherited the western portion. He had college classmate George Sanderson design the Bauhaus studio, completed in 1930, and John Butler Swann designed the 1941 house. The property joined the National Register in 2016.

Morris and Frelinghuysen worked together as artists in these spaces, creating abstract paintings and collecting works by their contemporaries. The rooms display their own creations alongside pieces they gathered, reflecting how they lived within their artistic circle.

The museum occupies the former Brookhurst estate, whose main house burned in 1908; the surviving Renwick-designed outbuildings stand near the 1930 studio and 1941 house. Visitors move between the studio, the house and the grounds, so allow time for walking outdoors. The site is in Lenox and Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

The house features original furniture pieces by modern design masters positioned exactly as they were when the residents lived here. Abstract wall paintings are built into the architecture itself, showing how art and living space merged into one unified design.
