Beachwood
APARTMENTS
Beachwood, OH
The former Deville Apartments with 246 units had been a staple on Chagrin Boulevard in Beechwood since the late 1960’s. With a new apartment complex built across the street, new owners purchased Deville apartments and reimagined the entire complex both interior and exterior. Exterior renovations included a total refresh of the exterior of the buildings with new windows, painted exterior, a new common area addition, a free standing pergola, pool cabanas, and lush landscaping all around the site. A new entrance canopy was also added with new signage. Interior alterations included newly remodeled lobby and common corridors, exercise renovations, a new game room addition, and a new indoor lounge that includes a kitchenette with beverage coolers, ice makers, sink, and microwave. The exterior patio was renovated to include a grilling station with a sink and ice bin and plenty of lounging area with new furniture. The new renovations revitalized a tired apartment complex into one of the more elegant living destinations in Beachwood.

Community West
FOUNDATION
Fairview Park, OH
Meraki Architects worked with Community West Foundation to create a schematic design for an exterior renovation as well as an interior alteration of an existing office building. The exterior renovation proposed the recladding of the existing rear addition, a new entrance canopy and outdoor gathering areas. The interior alterations aimed to rearrange existing spaces such as, the reception area, administrative stations, offices, conference rooms, breakroom with a kitchenette, visitor and staff restrooms, and secure storage areas. In order to communicate these ideas, colored renders, floor plans, and a site plan were created for the client.
