Description: "The work of David Miller and Robert Hull of the Miller/Hull Partnership stands at the forefront of the recent Pacific Northwest school. In their practice, and in this book, we see how similarities of form, materials, interest, and attitude converge to create new style - the Pacific Northwest style.". "Miller/Hull's award-winning, energy-conscious designs combine with a love of local materials and structural expressiveness to define the essence of the Pacific Northwest style. Here, climate change plays a critical role and each Miller/Hull building responds with simple yet inventive forms, straightforward plans, sensible siting, and careful detailing.". "Miller/Hull is the only comprehensive monograph of the architects' practice, which spans from civic buildings, office and retail structures, and educational and institutional projects, to their widely admired houses. Author Sheri Olson traces Miller/Hull's work through twenty-nine projects. Beautiful color photographs and line drawings capture the clarity and simplicity of the designs."--BOOK JACKET.
