An Adriana Meyer Midcentury Masterpiece You Can’t Miss

In the ever-evolving world of architecture, Dallas stands out as one of the most iconic American cities. From our distinct downtown skyline to the history within our suburban homes, this city features every movement from midcentury modern to Italian Renaissance. Plus, Dallas has produced some of the industry’s premier artists like Charles Dilbeck, O’Neil Ford, and Harwood K. Smith.

For this week’s Inwood Home of the Week sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we’re excited to feature the next generation of architectural excellence with an incredible home designed by Adriana Meyer. Clifton Kessler with Allie Beth Allman & Associates has 4419 W Northwest Highway listed for $1,825,000. This 4,541-square-foot, four-bed, five-bath home is a midcentury modern masterpiece. Additionally, its architect is defining a new state of sustainable design in Dallas.

Adriana Meyer founded APM architecture in 2007. However, her background extends much further. Born in Guatemala City, Meyer attended architecture school at Universidad Francisco Marroquín. Then, she moved to Dallas where she received her architecture license in 2004. Adriana joined the renowned HKS where she worked on projects including St. Rose Hospital, Las Vegas; Lynn Cancer Center, Boca Raton, amongst others, specializing in planning and exterior design.

Currently, Adrianna’s work centers on modern aesthetics and environmental design. The home at 4419 W Northwest Highway, which she renovated with Jade Custom Homes, follows this theme.

From the outside, the home boasts a beautiful midcentury modern aesthetic.

“The original house was 2,000 square feet with a midcentury look,” says Adrianna. “So we were able to keep a lot of the existing structure and add over 2,000 square feet onto that. I really wanted to enhance the original style of this home while updating it from floor to ceiling.”

Therefore, the enhancements are abundant. Adriana curated a sleek contemporary look by installing glass-walled cathedral ceilings, custom wood beams, white oak flooring, and a marble-encased fireplace with a hand-hewed pecan mantle.

Also, she gave the primary suite vaulted ceilings and separate access to the backyard.

“We kept the original low-pitched roof as a nod to the midcentury style but enhanced and brought up the entrance for a more modern feel,” says Adriana. “Also, I love that we were able to work with the existing structure. It really contributes to a sustainable build.”

Some of the other incredible features of this renovation include Emtek hardware, Museum finished drywall, and Sonos sound integrations.

Also, the kitchen features custom cabinets, quartz counters, SS double wall ovens, Viking cooktop, and a Broan Range Hood.

Inside and out, this home is a masterpiece of midcentury and modern design. Everything from the bespoke lighting fixtures to the unique tilework nods to the movement while creating a fresh cohesive feel.
