Norman H. Strong, FAIA, LEED AP

Partner

Norman Strong has helped shape a practice that embodies the highest aspirations of design and firm culture, recognized by the AIA 2003 Architecture Firm Award. He received a cum laude bachelor of architecture degree in 1978 from Washington State University, joined Miller Hull in 1979 and was named partner in 1985. He now divides his time between the Seattle and San Diego offices.

As a former AIA National ’05 – ’07 Vice President, Norman was the Chair of the AIA’s Sustainability Discussion Group (or SDiG) which was formed to support the AIA’s position statements focused on high quality, high performance buildings and sustainable community planning. Their work was the spring point for the AIA to identify opportunities for architects to be leaders in the design and construction arena to enable the entire team to reach the AIA’s goal of carbon neutral buildings by the year 2030.

Norm was named a Fellow by the American Institute of Architects in 2004. He received the BetterBricks Advocate Award in 2007, which recognizes those who advocate for and support the design and operation of high-performance buildings, including consultants as well as workers in the government, nonprofit, and educational sectors.
