Reese LaMoureaux
Senior Interior Designer



Raised in Central California, Reese’s passion for design and construction began early—building homes out of Legos and drawing inspiration from a family deeply rooted in creative trades. Her grandfather designed and built homes, her father is an engineer, and her grandmother was a seamstress. With a mother who loved fashion and interiors, Reese developed an innate appreciation for the intersection of design, architecture, and craftsmanship.

She studied architecture for three years, including a year at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, before realizing her true calling was in interior design. During college, she gained valuable experience working for two architecture firms. After earning her degree in Interior Design, she relocated to Lake Tahoe and began her career in the design-build realm, where she spent several years honing her craft on custom residential projects.

She continues to find joy and inspiration in thoughtful, intentional design--but her favorite role by far is being a mom. Raising her two daughters continuously inspires her to grow, stay curious, and become a better version of herself each day. When she's not working, Reese can be found hiking, skiing, or enjoying time at the beach with her girls--continually inspired by the natural beauty of the Tahoe region.


All Staff

I would be pleased to be a reference for MWA. You have designed two houses that I have been involved with.

The first on lot 137 in Lahontan was a custom house for my wife and me. This house was designed for our needs and to meet the stringent requirements of the Lahontan Design Guidelines. We achieved our program goals, Lahontan Design Review Approval, and a building permit. We sold the lot, building plans and the building permit to a speculative developer who built the house with some modifications.

Last year we purchased a house which was built on spec by a developer. MWA designed that house. We were not “in the market” for a house, but happened to walk through an open house. We fell in love with your design. The house was well sited for views and privacy, very bright inside (an unusual situation in Lahontan), and fit our life style perfectly. Twenty three days later we owned this house. My wife and I are moving to this house and Truckee full time as of November 1st.

I would strongly recommend MWA to anyone designing a house in the Truckee/Tahoe area.
