Saunders and Lawton was an architectural firm consisting of partners George Willis Lawton and Charles Willard Saunders active from 1898 until 1915 in Seattle, Washington. Other architects at the firm included Herman A. Moldenhour, Paul David Richardson, and J. Charles Stanley. Following Saunders' retirement, Moldenhour would take his place as partner in the firm under the name Lawton & Moldenhour, who would have moderate success throughout the 1920s. Moldenhour later designed the original terminal at Seattle–Tacoma International Airport.
