Miller Hull Partnership has designed Matt’s Place 2.0 in Spokane, WA, United States, a house that “pushes the boundaries of accessible design” for those with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The prefabricated mass timber prototype has a main-floor suite and incorporates home control systems that can be operated solely by the occupant’s eye movements. It is part of a partnership between Miller Hull and the Matt’s Place Foundation, devoted to dignity for ALS sufferers.
Miller Hull Partnership designed Trestle Cabin as a prototype for developing low-impact cabins on challenging and remote sites. Located in San Juan County, WA, the house hovers above the ground on a steel exoskeleton that provides nautical views while avoiding excavation and the disruption of the surrounding flora and fauna. The design employs a strategy of long-term adaptability, featuring a modest footprint and an independent armature that accommodates reconfigurations over time.
