Miami University is seeking architectural and engineering services to renovate and expand Bonham House to accommodate the Myaamia Center program. The Center, a Miami Tribe of Oklahoma initiative located within an academic setting, serves the needs of the Myaamia people, Miami University, and partner communities through research, education, and outreach that promote Myaamia language, culture, knowledge, and values This project will include spaces for classrooms, offices, meeting and activity space, indoor and outdoor gathering and cultural practices areas, as well as areas for hands on learning workshops and support/circulation spaces. This project should consider the efficiency of reuse of recent work while evaluating the ongoing operational costs of the building. The Bonham House has significance to the history of Miami University. The north facade and general appearance of the original structure should be maintained, while new construction should reflect the culture of the Myaamia people.
