For more than three decades, Cypress Homes( Cypress) has been building distinctive homes and lasting relationships throughout Northeast Wisconsin. Founded in 1994 and based in Appleton, the awardwinning homebuilder serves Appleton, Oshkosh, Green Bay, and surrounding communities. The company’ s reputation is grounded in quality craftsmanship, thoughtful design, energy efficiency, and a highly organized building experience that keeps each client’ s vision and budget at the center of the process.
Cypress is led by President Shannon Meyer, who joined the company in 2005 and worked her way through a variety of roles before becoming president. That broad experience reflects the company’ s team-first culture: every department understands how its work contributes to the finished home and the client experience. Modern Home Builders sits down with Shannon to discuss the people, process, and communities behind the company’ s continued success.
One of the advantages of building with Cypress is the range of possibilities available to each homeowner. The company has developed an extensive library of floor plans, many with 3D virtual tours, and design ideas that can serve as a starting point for nearly any lifestyle. Clients may customize an established design, combine elements from several plans, or collaborate with the team to create something entirely unique. Drafting is integrated into the building process, allowing ideas to be developed with the same team responsible for bringing them to life. Similarly, the company’ s model homes and completed-home portfolio also give clients a tangible way to explore layouts, finishes, and architectural details before making decisions. By pairing inspiration with guidance from experienced professionals, Cypress helps homeowners move from broad ideas to a cohesive, personalized design.
