The way in which our firm works today comes through in every part of our new Boston studio, planting it more firmly in a city it has long called home. Each of our studios is designed to reflect their respective communities, and this one expresses its Boston identity through a strong connection to the Harbor and Greenway while illustrating how the firm can advance our unique, hybrid work culture and commitment to the well-being of all Bulfinches as our other studios evolve.
Shepley Bulfinch served as both design architect and architect of record for the new studio, which bridges the building’s 1980s-era geometry with the flexibility and connectivity required by a contemporary architecture practice. The studio’s program is organized around a range of settings rather than assigned desks, allowing the office to flex as daily headcount varies through a mix of collaborative and focus zones, meeting rooms, break-out areas, and all-hands gathering spaces. A large, multi-purpose lounge serves as the studio’s social hub, facilitating daily teamwork, hybrid firmwide gatherings, and events. An adjacent workshop and maker space keeps model-making, prototyping, and experimentation in clear view, making the creative process visible and accessible. The office also houses a curated, rotating selection of archival materials dating back to founder Henry Hobson Richardson, whose first Boston project, Trinity Church, established the firm in 1874.
