Meyer Davis is an interior design boutique with offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, and London. Founded in 1999 by friends Will Meyer and Gray Davis, the firm specializes equally in residential, hospitality, retail, and workplace design, and has over seventy full-time interior designers, project managers, industrial designers, and virtual designers on staff.[1][2]

History

Will Meyer and Gray Davis are natives of Nashville, Tennessee, and both attended Auburn University College of Architecture, Design, and Construction in Alabama prior to moving to New York City.[3] Davis began his career in Montgomery, Alabama, at the office of his professor, Bobby McAlpine, and moved to New York City following college to work first for John Saladino, and later for Thomas O’Brien’s Aero Studios, where he designed for clients including Giorgio Armani and Ralph and Ricky Lauren. Upon moving to New York, Meyer trained with architects Peter Eisenman and his mentor Charles Gwathmey, working on homes for the likes of Steven Spielberg and Michael Dell.[4]

Meyer and Davis were connected in New York by mutual friends and colleagues, and eventually began consulting with one another on freelance projects, leading them to formally establish Meyer Davis in their first SoHo office in 1999.[1][3] Their collaborative studio began with a commission for a residence in Tennessee and a nightclub in Las Vegas, and quickly led to work for Oscar de la Renta (boutiques worldwide), Andrew Carmellini (Locanda Verde at the Greenwich Hotel), and John Varvatos (boutiques nationwide). Other notable clients of Meyer Davis have included Jonathan Tisch (Loews Hotels), Aby Rosen (Paramount Hotel), Barry Sternlicht (1 Hotels), the Frist Family (private offices and residence) and Jenna Lyons (private residence). The pair have also collaborated on numerous private residences in Upstate New York and East Hampton.[5][6][7]

Along with designing for numerous private residential clients, Meyer Davis has collaborated with chefs and restaurateurs like John McDonald and Chef Josh Capon, Chef Michael White and Altamarea Group, Chef Ford Fry, Chef Andrew Carmellini, Chef Michael Schwartz, Starr Restaurants, and SBE.[8][7] Meyer Davis has been selected by a wide variety of brands worldwide to design hotels and residential developments; clients include Four Seasons, Rosewood Hotels, Auberge, Arlo, Loews, 1 Hotels, W Hotels, Le Méridien, The Ritz Carlton, and The Related Companies, as well as numerous boutique hotel and development groups. The studio has also designed retail and office environments for Oscar de la Renta, Dwell Studio, John Varvatos, Morgenthal Frederics, Snapchat, and The Assemblage.[7]
