Nevada Architect 2021
Karin was originally drawn to architecture for its seemingly broad scope in understanding systems and synergy at both a macro and micro level. She is fascinated by the patterns of relationships, behaviors, influences and motivations within the social, political, environmental and individual landscape and how these hinder, enhance or generally contribute towards an outcome. Ideologically, she is inspired by the many writings of futurist, architect and inventor, Buckminster Fuller.
A natural seeker, Karin was born asking “why.” Beyond just challenging the status quo she sought deeper understanding of self, others and community. From a young age, she was particularly adept at creating spaces and projects using found, recycled and natural objects. She appreciates design solutions that are original, playful, innovative, resourceful and responsible.
Karin is inspired daily by the enthusiasm, curiosity and playful spirit of her almost 7 year old son. These days, she is discovering a growing interest in urban homesteading with backyard chickens and gardening. When she is not spending time adventuring with her husband and son, she loves learning and embodying the mysteries and magic of the seen and unseen universe. Most recently she is fascinated by learning Bio Geometry, in addition to continued studies in astrology.

We purchased our home new around 20 years ago and we wanted a firm to guide us in a transformation that would include the addition of 2 more bedrooms, a wine cellar, a spa and expanded family room. After interviewing several design firms we choose to work with Kristi and her team at MWA and we are very satisfied with our choice.
The project was extensive and included an excavation under the existing home to add a third floor and expansion of the home’s footprint to accommodate access to the 3 floors. MWA developed a creative floor plan and brought their engineering expertise to a rather complex project. The project is recently completed and we are very pleased with the results and we now have a beautiful home with plenty of room for our grandchildren and guests.
