Watertown Boys & Girls Club @watertownbgc photography is complete! 📸

Designed to create an engaging environment for children's after-school activities, the space centers on flexibility — allowing a variety of programs and activities to happen simultaneously. Soft curves, warm wood textures, and playful details bring warmth and character throughout, fostering a nurturing environment where young members can learn, play, and flourish.

A big thank you to Daniel Nystedt @nystedtphotography for a great shoot! We're excited to share more soon

On July 24, we celebrated the topping off ceremony for the Boys & Girls Club of Lynn @bgclynn as the final piece of steel was placed in the upper-level gymnasium. 🏗️

Before it was lifted into place, the beam was covered with signatures from Club kids and staff, the design and construction teams, city and state officials, board members, and major donors — a fitting record of the many people who have helped bring this project to life after years of planning.

The signed beam will remain visible in the completed gymnasium, becoming a time capsule and a lasting reminder of the collaboration behind a project of this scale and importance.

TBT A former farmhouse in Lexington, MA reimagined as a contemporary home for an artist. The project introduces a series of sculptural interventions—sawtooth walls, custom windows, glass parapets, and a peeled facade with an oculus—layered onto the existing structure. Set within a large, rural lot, the design balances playful expression with the scale and character of its surroundings.

Overlooking Salem Harbor in Marblehead, this custom geothermal home pairs high-performance systems with durable, tactile materials. Designed with passive solar principles, a highly insulated envelope, and high-velocity AC, the house balances energy performance with long-term resilience. Bluestone cavity walls and shiplap western red cedar define the exterior, responding to the coastal setting and views across from the boat landing.

Boys and Girls Club of Worcester in Great Brook Valley

BLOOM was selected via RFP to create a new 36,000 sf clubhouse in Great Brook Valley, a neighborhood within a federal housing development described by the client as a "child development desert." BLOOM arrived with extensive BGC experience from past projects in Lynn, Haverhill and Watertown, and when we encountered both the site and the project mission, we were immediately inspired, knowing this would be a great process and project. The new club will serve 500 kids and teens p
