All Staff

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.
