Jerry Meyer, son of an Oswego couple, Wayne and Ada Meyer, has completed the interior design of a dream home in suburban Los Angeles called Bel Air that has been featured in a magazine called “The Robb Report.”

“The Robb Report” is a magazine about luxury life, featuring products of the lifestyle such as cars, watches and real estate. It was originally started by Robert White as a magazine designed to complement the purchase of a Rolls Royce automobile.

The home featured is an Italian Renaissance hilltop villa. It is a 15,000 square-foot residence near Los Angeles overlooking a country club. The 1.5 acre property encompasses a pool, has a double garden with water features and sculpture and numerous entertaining spaces.

The color palatte for most of the furnishings are red, fuchsia, and coral. Other features of the home include the theater, theater lounge, wine room, and billiard room, which have their own wing. There is a custom-designed bed, a 400 square foot closet and 17 bathrooms in the home.

Wayne and Ada Myer have lived in Oswego for almost 20 years. His son Jerry graduated from Axtell, Neb. He then was an intern for an interior designer for six years.

This is Meyer’s 11th house to work on. He works on two houses at the same time, he said. The other one he is working on is for a Chinese man who lives in Beijing.

“It took 25 years to get to this point and the things that have worked for me are a lot of hard work and surrounding myself with the best people possible,” Jerry said.

“I’ve had the same clients for over 20 years and have learned the value of loyalty and honesty,” he added.
Jerry sent a copy of the “Robb Report” to his father in Oswego. Wayne was excited to receive it and commented that it was really great and good to read about his son’s accomplishments.
