The Boston Society of Architects is moving to a new, public-centered space in Boston’s Atlantic Wharf building in late 2011. Designed by Howeler + Yoon Architects and constructed by Commodore, BSA Space boasts more room, more amenities and more exhibits. Take a look.
Emerging onto the second floor at 290 Congress Street, Fort Point Channel stretches before you. Nearly 6,000 square feet of sunlit space showcases cutting-edge design, overlooking a two-story atrium and outdoor landing. Renowned designers serve as guest curators, pushing forward the meaning of design.
Conference rooms dot the gallery floor. “Hot desks” serve as a quick place to catch up on your next client presentation or simply read email. Architects speak over coffee. BSA committees meet simultaneously, generating interdisciplinary dialogue. Landscape architects, contractors, homeowners and urban planners meet. This is where design flourishes.
Five hundred programs a year will pack the halls with Boston’s best building professionals: public lectures, professional development workshops, design festivals, networking events, a college fair and even K–12 education programs. More to do, more room to do it.
