Meyer & Meyer, Inc. Architecture and Interiors
The unique site, 11 acres on a peninsula with breathtaking views of the ocean, inspired Meyer & Meyer to break the mold of waterside shingle-style homes. The estate is comprised of a main house, guest house, and existing bunker. The design of the main house involves projecting wings that appear to grow out of the hillside and spread outward toward three sides of ocean views. Architecture and landscape merge as exterior stairways and bridges provide connections to a network of paths leading to the beaches at each point. An enduring palette of local stone, salt-washed wood, and purple-green slate reflects the muted and changeable seaside hues. This beach-side retreat offers ever-changing views from windows, terraces, decks, and pathways. Tucked into the design are unexpected touches such as a hideaway wine room and a nautically-inspired crow’s nest.

Inspired by traditions ranging from the Arts & Craft movement through to Venetian Rococo and Babylonian frescoes, the maximalist No Use Crying For Roses wallpaper uses toned stripes to create a formal structure from a lush medley of oil-painted florals. Rendered in the colours of the earth and evening No Use Crying For Roses is a floral wallpaper to bring intensity and drama into a room.

LLI Design
Although the existing entrance hallway was a good size it lacked character. To address this the stained glass in the fan light window above the front door and side window was reinstated, in a bespoke design, bringing light, colour and texture into the hallway.
The original tiled floor had long been removed so a period style crisp black and white tile with a border pattern was specified. This immediately visually increased the size and lightness of the hall area.
Nigel Tyas were commissioned to produce a dramatic copper and glass pendant light in the stairwell that hung from the top floor ceiling down to the ground floor, giving a visual connection and really creating a wow factor.

Stained Glass Denver
It's very common for homes in Denver to be built with large windows in the entryway or front of the home. The windows look elegant and allow for plenty of natural sunlight to fill the interior space. However, as these homeowners found, the large windows allowed strangers to see straight into the home. These stained glass sidelights and transom prevent outsiders from looking into the foyer while still allowing plenty of sunlight to brighten the room.
