We joined together yesterday to celebrate the 100th birthday of our firm founder, Omer Mithun. He passed away in the early 1980s, but his legacy lives on through our shared passion for great design, community service and education. Happy Birthday, Omer! đź“·: Greg Catron

Since last fall, Mithun team members Maggie Osial, Meghan Lewis, Nathaniel Smith and Zach Moshier have been partnering with Sawhorse Revolution and local high school students to design and build a tiny home that will go to support the Nickelsville Homeless Community. This project will change the life of someone experiencing homelessness. We hope that you’ll join us this Wednesday to celebrate the amazing gift that these talented youth have provided for their community! Vivaldi House Celebration June 13th, 5-6 pm at Franklin High School (Seattle).

Architectural Record magazine recently interviewed Mithun partners Anne Torney and Brendan Connolly for a special section examining challenges and opportunities facing firms of all sizes. “The Future of Practice: Large Firms,” explores the impacts of evolving project delivery, design technology and staff diversity on business models. Diversity is one of the greatest challenges for large firms. Among the featured companies, “Mithun stands out on approaching gender equity: 44 percent of their partners and principals are women.” We value the diversity of our staff, and continue to build our team with a range of perspectives, disciplines and backgrounds to fuel innovation within the practice. https://www.architecturalrecord.com/articles/13468-the-future-of-practice-large-firms

Sparking Collaboration, Uniting a Campus. The ground floor of this Google workplace features large meeting rooms and a coffee shop to draw engineers from across the campus, increasing idea exchange and strengthening relationships. Inspired by the art of coffee making, the design palette references coffee’s warmth and richness. Walls clad in recycled burlap bags further the reference and introduce a tactile texture within the space. Just outside is an exterior deck with diverse seating, reinforcing indoor/outdoor connections. http://mithun.com/project/workplace-for-technology-engineers/ (link also in bio) 📷: Marco Zecchin Enterprises LLC/Image-center.com
