The purpose of this letter is to introduce Kurt Reinkens and his firm MWA Architects and share our working experience with this firm
I am certain that you are well aware that the success of a project often depends on the selection of the team--especially with some of the special projects that we have the pleasure of working on in this community. A solid group of professionals who communicate well and work seamlessly can make all the difference in achieving the owner’s goals in design, time and budget.
In 2008 our firm had the pleasure of working with MWA Architecture and Engineering on a high end project in the new Martis Camp development in Truckee, California.
Our experience working with MWA and Kurt Reinkens was terrific. He and his team are not only one of the most talented and respected architecture firms in the Lake Tahoe area, they have a wonderful spirit, fresh attitude and attention to detail that stands out. All of which makes working with them enjoyable for everyone involved.
