Matthew Waitkus | Founding Principal & Design Director
Matthew Waitkus is the Founding Principal and Design Director of MW Design, a Bay Area architecture and interior design studio specializing in custom homes, renovations, additions, and accessory dwelling units. With more than 20 years of professional experience, he works closely with homeowners to create thoughtful, site-responsive spaces that reflect their lifestyle, vision, and the unique character of each property. Since founding MW Design in 2014, Matthew has guided clients through every phase of the design process—from concept development and permitting through construction—bringing a collaborative, hands-on approach to every project. Before establishing MW Design, he worked with internationally recognized firms, including Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) and Arquitectonica. Matthew holds a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Detroit Mercy and lives in the East Bay with his family. His design philosophy is simple: great projects begin with listening, thoughtful collaboration, and a commitment to creating timeless spaces that enrich everyday life.
"I believe great design starts with understanding how people live. My goal is to create homes that not only meet my clients' needs but also exceed their expectations and enrich their daily lives for years to come."
Thoughtful Design. Personal Service. Lasting Value.
