Shah Habibi
Designer/Drafter; BIM Manager & IT Technician



Born and raised in Iran, Shah's journey included living in Turkey before making his way to the United States, fostering a profound passion for diverse cultures and international architecture. His academic path led him to UC Berkeley, where he engaged more in architectural studies in an enriching environment. In the Bay Area, he gained experience working on commercial and multifamily buildings, and now residing amidst the picturesque landscapes of Tahoe, Shah's focus has shifted towards a deep love for custom mountain residential homes, finding inspiration from the natural surroundings and enjoying activities such as hiking, fishing, and backpacking in his leisure time. Additionally, at MWA, he takes on the role of IT and BIM manager when not engaged in architecture.


All Staff

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.
