Inside an Art-Filled Tennessee Home That Feels Like a Countryside Escape

Architect and designer Will Meyer, co-founder of the internationally renowned firm Meyer Davis and co-author of The Language of Home, welcomes us inside his Nashville home with his wife, Kerstin. Designed by Edwin Keeble in the 1930s, this characterful Cotswold-style house sits on a secluded property overlooking sweeping valley views.

After years in New York, Will and Kerstin fell for the property and transformed it into a warm family home while carefully preserving its original architecture.


Throughout the house, Scandinavian furniture, contemporary art, inherited pieces, and collections gathered from their travels create a layered interior that feels personal rather than overly designed.


Will and Kerstin walk us through the renovation, from the glass-and-steel orangery and light-filled kitchen to the gallery-like hallways and striking marble-clad primary bathroom.


As the co-founder of Meyer Davis, whose work spans private residences, hotels, restaurants, and other spaces around the world, Will also shares how the principles he brings to professional projects have shaped the way he and Kerstin live at home.
