What Meyers + Associates does

Meyers + Associates is a privately held architecture and interior design firm founded in 1999 and headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. The firm provides integrated architectural and interior design services across five practice areas branded as Work (corporate), Dwell (residential/multifamily), Stay (hospitality), Play (recreation), and Shop (retail and restaurants). Client work spans 11+ U.S. states and includes flagship enterprise engagements for Abercrombie & Fitch (a 20+ year relationship spanning campus buildings and the Hollister NYC flagship), the Hilton Columbus Convention Center expansion (Ohio's largest hotel), Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio (230,000 SF, the world's largest such facility), and multiple AC Hotel and dual-brand Marriott and Hilton properties. The firm holds preferred vendor status with Marriott International and Hilton and was named Marriott International Global Architect of the Year in 2017 for modular construction innovation.

The firm differentiates through an integrated architecture-and-interior-design offering, a non-hierarchical open-plan office, and demonstrated sustainability expertise including its own LEED Silver-certified headquarters (Ohio's first LEED-certified architecture office) and LEED Gold projects for clients such as Scotts Miracle-Gro and the Hilton Columbus Convention Center. Awards across AIA, IIDA, Modular Building Institute, Urban Land Institute, and Marriott/Hilton brand programs number 30+ since 2007. Project delivery relies on a recurring consultant ecosystem that includes Jezerinac Geers (structural), Prater Engineering, EMH&T (civil), POD (landscape), AMBIA Lighting, and Flat Black Commercial Visuals.

Revenue is generated as professional service fees on a project basis — typically a percentage of construction cost or fixed fee — with no public pricing or subscription model disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales driven by developer partnerships (Crawford Hoying, Edwards Companies, Thrive Companies, Klingbeil Capital), hospitality brand preferred-vendor channels, municipal RFPs (e.g., City of Grandview Heights), and referrals from long-tenured clients. The firm is independent with no parent company, outside institutional investors, or M&A activity disclosed in the source material.
