This book represents an extrodianry environmental focus for design. The houses created by the Miller/Hull Partnership display architecture originality combined with a keen knowledge of the northwest. Each house is created in harmony with it's surrounding environment--a beautiful representation of both art and archecture.

Please note the customer review entitled, "Architecture Reference Book," does not reflect the correct designer. The architects represented in this book are David Miller, Bob Hull, Norm Strong, and other very talented designers from the Miller/Hull Partnership.

This book is a terrific overview of the early work of Miller Hull. The projects presented range from small and spare to moderately sized and still elegantly spare. The work of this firm is admirable in it's tectonic approach and tasteful use of materials in their raw state. The book is part of an excellent series edited by Oscar Riera Ojeda: I have found that any book project that he oversees is a worthwhile addition to my library. Mr. Ojeda produces books with a great balance of intelligent but not pompous text, first class photography, and drawings of plans, sections, and details that I value as an architect. All in all, this is an excellent book, and part of an excellent series. I recommend both without reservation.
