Meet Matt – Founder of ShawCADesign
Matt the founder and driving force behind ShawCADesign. Matt’s journey to becoming a residential designer was as direct and determined as they come. From a young age, he set his sights on being the best in the field, and more than 25 years later, he still lives that passion every day.
Even before graduating high school, Matt was drafting home designs for teachers’ projects and earning recognition for his work. He placed in the top 35 statewide for best architectural house design while still a student. His professional journey began immediately after high school, when he joined an A/E firm while simultaneously pursuing his degree. During that time, he placed 2nd in his class for best-presented and designed residential homes — and it was then that ShawCADesign was born.
Matt earned his degree in Architecture and Engineering and has never looked back. Although the company was officially formed in 2000, its roots trace back to those early high school drafting tables. Over the past 25+ years, ShawCADesign has built a strong reputation across Indiana — designing everything from small remodels to luxury homes up to 15,000 square feet. The firm has also proudly contributed to six BAGI Home-A-Rama events, showcasing high-end design and craftsmanship.
