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.


All Staff

I am pleased to offer my wholehearted recommendation for MW A, who recently completed design work for my residential addition. Throughout the entire process, they demonstrated professionalism, creativity, and a strong commitment to client service. From the outset, the team was exceptionally responsive and open to design dialogue. They listened carefully to my goals, welcomed feedback, and engaged in thoughtful discussion that ultimately strengthened the final design. Their ability to balance my vision with practical considerations made the process collaborative and enjoyable. Equally impressive was their reliability. Every project milestone and promised deadline was met, often ahead of schedule. In a field where delays are common, their consistent follow-through provided tremendous peace of mind. The project also involved multiple zoning and compliance challenges, which the firm navigated with skill and confidence. Their deep understanding of local regulations helped avoid costly delays and ensured that all submissions met the necessary standards. Perhaps most notably, they went above and beyond by representing me at Architectural Standards Committee meetings to secure approval for my addition. Their advocacy, preparation, and clear communication were instrumental in achieving a smooth approval process. In every respect, MW A exceeded expectations and was truly a pleasure to work with. I would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking an architectural team that is communicative, dependable, and dedicated to delivering exceptional results.
