About Us
WAKEdesign strives to create homes that accurately reflect our clients. We do so by building relationships through a one-on-one approach to design. We learn the ins and outs of our clients' lives to create spaces that most effectively respond to their specific needs and lifestyles beyond the conventional home transcript. After all, no two people are the same, neither should any two homes.
It's our mission to guide our clients from concept to custom home.

Maggie Hanna received her Bachelor of Science in Architecture degree in 2009, and Master of Architecture degree in 2011. While completing her Architectural internship, under prominent residential Architects in Southern California and the Pacific Northwest, she was able to established WAKEdesign.
Initially created as a drafting consultancy, her business quickly expanded as she took on residential projects of her own and began focusing her studio on Residential Design.
Maggie’s desire to be efficient and effective is reflected in how she runs her studio: hands on. Each task in the design process from home measuring, meetings, designing, and construction observation is produced solely by Maggie. She is thorough and responsive during all phases of design and aims to build strong client relationships that last well past construction.

I've hired WAKEdesign for a custom home build for my family and I have to say that the experience was fantastic. I am very satisfied with the results. The design of the new house incorporates our style and definitely stands out from the crowd. As someone who is not familiar with the design and permitting process for such a home, WAKEdesign was instrumental in helping me navigate the city's permitting system. The process was made painless and the architect was very receptive and responsive to my many questions. WAKEdesign went above and beyond with the research completed on my behalf to help me choose the best finishes and materials to use in this home. I would definitely recommend WAKEdesign and would work with them again.

As General Contractor, its been really tough to find an architect and designer who is professional, easy to reach, knowledgable and willing to go the extra mile for not only the homeowner but the contractor as well. Her plans are always very detailed and easy to read, and if we ever have any questions, she is there to answer them in a timely fashion. I refer her to all of my clients who are in need of an architect and have heard nothing but good things from all of them.

Maggie is a pleasure to work with and I would recommend her services to anyone in the market for an architectural design professional. Remodeling existing homes can be a tricky endeavor, but Maggie excels in providing a top-notch level of communication that keeps projects moving along smoothly from the design phase through permitting and to finished construction. She is extremely responsive to design questions and has a great grasp of what is feasible from a construct-ability standpoint. Keep up the great work, Maggie!

Many thanks for the professionalism AND creativity that don't always hand-in hand. Maggie has an excellent grasp on what is required to push a project through permitting and the bid process.

I found myself with a project that was just big enough to not be a DIY or handyman project but way too small to get a contracting firm to look at. Although our project was small Maggie took it on and helped walk us through the design, structural engineering, and permit process. My family and I felt as important as any large project Maggie may have been working on at the same time.
Maggie always responded quickly, she was punctual, and even followed up to make sure I was making through the permit process without any trouble.
I would recommend Maggie and WAKEdesign to anyone needing design and planning services. She is a pleasure to work with.
Thank you Maggie!

We have had a very good experience working with Maggie at Wakedesign for a first floor kitchen/family remodel and addition. After a first round with another architect (who was also good but had to move to another project), my wife and I realized we had to come to terms with much higher building costs than expected in the current market. Maggie brought some great ideas to the table that rekindled our excitement for the project, that fit within our budget, and that qualifies for an over-the-counter field inspection permit. She's also a pleasure to work with, very responsive, and very organized. She keeps us on our toes and we feel well-prepared to start the project. I don't hesitate to recommend her.

Our project involved a kitchen remodel with changes to a nearby mud room, bathroom, and office, plus adding a new bathroom upstairs and expanding a back bedroom into a master suite. Working with WAKEdesign has been phenomenal; principal Maggie is incredibly professional and detail-oriented, and has gone out of her way to make the whole project run smoothly. She's a great listener, and worked hard to incorporate all of our "helpful" suggestions and requests in a way that satisfied the spirit of our requirements, but in a realistic, practical way. She coordinated the structural engineering work we needed done, and always made herself available for questions or changes. We have already recommended WAKEdesign to others and are totally comfortable giving Maggie the highest rating possible.

Maggie was our architect for our home remodel. We are having our kitchen bumped out and a family room with deck added. We are very happy with the final design. She worked with us to include what we wanted in her design. She did a great job communicating with us throughout the process.
