Selected work
Residential and commercial commissions across New England — each shaped by site, climate, and craft.
“We design calm, enduring spaces — rooted in light, material honesty, and the way people actually live.”Northfield Studio · Est. 2009
Studio
A twelve-person practice balancing research, fabrication, and built work.
Northfield Studio grew out of a shared interest in quiet modernism — buildings that feel inevitable on their sites rather than imposed on them. We collaborate early with clients, engineers, and makers so every detail is resolved before ground breaks.
- Licensed architects in CT, MA, and RI
- In-house visualization and model shop
- Sustainable materials research program
Your vision, our mission
Every commission is singular. We bring the same rigor to a kitchen addition as to a civic pavilion — clear phases, transparent fees, and craft you can see in the finished work.
