PORTFOLIO

Truckee-Phoenix Executive Building

Awarded LEED Silver CS in November 2009, being the first LEED certified commercial office building in Truckee.

There are a few remaining tenant spaces available for lease. Please contact North Tahoe Commercial for leasing information.

The objective was to create a speculative professional office project that would provide a rewarding daily work environment for local professionals. Respecting the pattern of corner offices being a symbol of power and success in the traditional business world, the architect studied how to maximize the quantity of corner offices. The resultant design includes opportunities for 36 corner offices in the 20,000 sq. ft. building.

The building embraces regional identity in a timeless manner and is a flagship within the existing business park.

The third level conference room was designed to be a one-of-a-kind experience. It is a three sided glass room with panoramic views of the mountainscape to the south, east and west. The design has a stacked repetitive theme that talks to the organic layering of the distant mountains while offering an ease of simplicity to the eyes and offering the financial rewards found in repetitive modular type design.

We hired MWA, specifically the team of Kurt and Kristi, to design our home in Truckee in mid-2010. They worked with us through design, contractor selection, and the construction process that ended in mid-2012. While the "gender-equality" of their team made them a comfortable choice for my wife and I, it was their design talent that truly set them a part. Additionally, as we went through the entire process, it was both their ability to listen to our thoughts and concerns, and their ability to read between the lines of our requests, that truly made the relationship so successful and special. If given a second chance, we would make the same choice in design professionals without a second's hesitation. Highly recommended.
