DESIGN
Headquartered in Truckee, CA. MWA is an experienced firm with youthful energy and a proven track record of over 2,500 projects since our inception in 1985. We take pride in maintaining a professional presence while operating as a casual, down to earth company with a sense of humor. Our office is a fun think tank environment with dogs asleep on the floor and music thumping. We play hooky on powder days. We choose to live in the mountains for a high quality of life. Our happiness shows in our work.
We listen to what our clients say, educate them and help them weigh-off the multitude of options, factoring aesthetics, function, environment, long-term vs short-term costs, marketability, flexibility, and user satisfaction through the ages. We create a synthesis of concepts generated by our clients and ideas garnered from careful consideration of the potential. Our goal for any project is responsibility to the community, the environment, the user, and the soul.

Acumen Engineering has teamed with Kurt Reinkens, Kristi Thompson and MWA on no less than 13 projects in the greater Truckee area over the past 11 years. The scope of the projects has ranged from single-and multi-family residential buildings to renovation of historic structures in downtown Truckee to commercial and mixed-use planned developments.
In all cases, I did not hesitate to work with the firm because:
• Kurt and Kristi manage projects effectively
• Deadlines and expectations are known ahead of time, no last minute crisis
• All of the team members have a say in the design effort
• The architects know the applicable building and development codes so plan check
corrections are simple and owners understand what they’re getting ahead of time
Without reservation I have, and continue to, recommend MWA Architects to owners and
developers in need of a talented, resourceful and professional architectural firm in the
greater Truckee and North Lake Tahoe area.
