Northwest
Maritime Center architects win AIA “firm of the year” award
|
Jan
2003 |
|
|
The Miller/Hull Partnership, architect of the future Northwest Maritime Center (NWMC), has been awarded the 2003 American Institute of Architects Architecture Firm Award. In this story, Miller/Hull partner Craig Curtis, lead architect for the NWMC project, explains how the firm sought the contract “because it’s exactly the kind of project that we like to focus on”: it has an educational and interpretive aspect, the site is “magnificent,” and the clients are passionate about what they’re doing. The community-driven design process played into one of Miller/Hull’s strengths: listening. And Curtis declares, “The Maritime Center project has been one of the high spots, if not the highlight so far, of my career.” The Northwest Maritime Center will offer educational and cultural programs, maritime exhibits, and on-the-water activities aimed at preserving the area’s marine resources and celebrating its rich maritime past.
