Shaelin Morefield
Designer/ Drafter



Shaelin grew up in a small town on the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada where she developed a love of the outdoors. After four sunny years in San Luis Obispo and one cloudy year in Copenhagen, she received her Bachelor of Architecture with a Sustainable Environments Minor from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Upon graduating in 2019, her surfing wasn’t very good and the mountains called her back, so she returned to Truckee and MWA where she had spent the previous two summers as an intern. Shaelin can now be found skiing the snowy slopes in winter, biking the dusty trails in summer, and home-brewing kombucha all year-round.


All Staff

In the design phase, you clearly captured our objectives in both floor plan and aesthetics and realized them in the structure. And you did this within the difficult constraints placed on lakefront houses by TRPA. Many people comment that our house is the most aesthetically pleasing property on Edgewater. It fits into the environment gracefully and is not overbearing.

Visitors are particularly impressed with the vista upon entering the house, and the comfort of the great room. In addition, there are multiple spacious private areas including the flex room with its own sitting area and access to the outside and the entire lower floor with its family room and two bedrooms including baths and view of the lake.

In summary, it's a job well done, we’re very pleased with your design of the house, and MWA was a pleasure to work with!! And we'd use you again without hesitation.
