Since
its introduction in 1983, the Theory of Divisional Architecture
has been a Standard-of-Design in home renovation. Chauncey Meyer
developed the theory based on innovative materials which revolutionized
load bearing and improved structural performance. |

"A
space should have a grace about it. Good architecture shouldn't overwhelm,
it is the place that you enjoy without noticing. The space I design should
feel clean, refined, and comfortable," says Chauncey."

The
distinguished designer, Chauncey Meyer, named to the Tucson Historic
Commission in 2004, Member AIA, and one of the foremost architects
in Tucson, asks questions because he has to. It's in his nature
to know how to affect a space. He needs to see the light will live
in a structure he designs. |

A
substantial core of services from structural design, space planning,
and environmental conservation, provide the ideal techniques for
Arizona construction.

An
example of a Chauncey Meyer design, with the Brooks home, the clients
wanted their formal dining room to be a place to relax. By lowering
the ceiling, installing plush carpeting, and soffetting the light
fixtures, he created a softer sound for dinner conversation. As
you walk out of the immediate table area, the ceilings rise and
the floor material change to a harder travertine. This enhances
the element of transition with echoes and volume, reinforcing the
intimacy of the dining room. |

"Finding the joy in a room or landscape is part of listening
and understanding how the visible elements are combined."

| A
corner stone in Tucson, Chauncey Meyer's contributions can be found
throughout the southwest. His work on La Paloma Luxury Resort Hotel,
Remodeling and Restoration of U of A Buildings and the world famous
Rancho Valparaiso, in Paradise Valley, don't begin to describe the
breadth of diversity of this quiet Arizona architect. |
