Ivan Michael Palmaw (November 19 [O.S. November 6], 1896 – September 14, 1979) was a Russian-American architect and White émigré. Born in Saint Petersburg, he studied as a military engineer and served in the Imperial Russian Army during the First World War. Palmaw fled the country after the Russian Revolution, eventually travelling to Shanghai to stay with his uncle, architect Alexander Sergeevich Khrenov [ru]. He worked with Khrenov in Shanghai for a period, designing a number of residences. Palmaw immigrated to the United States in 1926, where he settled in Seattle and enrolled in the University of Washington. He graduated in 1929, and began work at the firm of Roy D. Rogers the following year. Alongside two other architects, he formed the partnership Baker, Stewart and Palmaw in 1934, but continued to work on independent contracts, including the Saint Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral in 1936–1938. He designed a number of electrical substations for Seattle City Light during the 1940s and early 1950s. In 1957, he began work at the firm of Harry Powell on Mercer Island, and retired in 1969.
