Show Houses for the Meredith Corporation

DWA has enjoyed a long relationship with Country Home magazine and their parent company, the Meredith Corporation.

In 2001 we built a "City Retreat" and "Country Getaway" in New York's Grand Central Station. The extraordinary location of these houses posed significant building challenges. The solution was off-site construction: these houses were built, disassembled, then reassembled at Grand Central. When the display was broken down, the parts were sold to benefit a series of charities.

In 1999 we built the "Liberty House" at the World Financial Center in New York. This was an exploration in modular-style construction - using prefabricated elements, we designed a highly customized house under the strict constraints imposed by a tight construction schedule and an unusual site.
