The text of this article is something you would find on a company's website, but it is not the sort of information you'd find on a Wikipedia article about a company. This appears to be a small to medium sized Miami-based business - it is very unlikely that the topic is notable enough for a Wikipedia article.  Vanilla  Wizard 💙 19:37, 21 June 2025 (UTC)


Atelier Mey is an architecture and design firm based in Miami, Florida, founded by Shawna Meyer, AIA, and Christopher Meyer, AIA. The firm’s work focuses on sustainable architecture, with emphasis on materiality, environmental performance, and regional responsiveness.

Atelier Mey’s portfolio includes residential, institutional, educational, and industrial projects across the southeastern United States. The firm integrates design research and academic collaboration into its practice, reflecting the founders' backgrounds in architectural education and environmental advocacy.

The firm's work has been covered in national and regional publications, including Architectural Record,[1] The Architect’s Newspaper,[2] Florida/Caribbean Architect,[3] and the University of Florida’s Due Diligence magazine.[4]

In 2018, co-founder Shawna Meyer was named to the Grist 50 Fixers list, which recognizes emerging leaders in sustainability and climate innovation.[5] In 2021, the firm's essay "Tactics of Control: Race + Water in the Mississippi Delta" was published in MAS Context.[6]

In 2025, Atelier Mey was selected as a finalist for the U.S. Pavilion at the Venice Biennale and contributed an exhibit for display.[7] The firm is also participating in an exhibition at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., as part of A South Forty: Contemporary Architecture in the American South.[8] The firm's project House in a Garden was included in a segment of the television program America ByDesign for its use of mass timber and environmental design.[9]
