About
Adrienne Economos Miller is a designer and educator who uses the trash pile as a tool for the deconstruction of architecture as an exploitative labor form. She is interested in heterogeneous materiality and the intentional demolition and reconstruction of the built environment toward new ends. She was the 2022–23 Schidlowski Emerging Faculty Fellow at Kent State University with the exhibition, “Refuse//Repose.” Her writing has been published in Disc, Log, and Perspecta and her work has been featured in exhibitions at A83, Kent State University, and the Cleveland Museum of Contemporary Art. She received their Bachelor of Science in Architecture from Ohio State University and a Master of Architecture from the Yale School of Architecture. She previously taught at Kent State University, Kean University, and Lehigh University. She has worked professionally as an architect and academic editor. She is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee working on creating collective labor structures and thinking through trans* architecture.
Adrienne also writes the Refuse//Repose newsletter, an extremely occasional substack for architectural thinking. Sign up here!
