Massachusetts Public Design Experience

35 Years Experience with Public Design Work in the Commonwealth

Designing for our communities, and expertly shepherding projects through the Massachusetts public work standards.

For over three decades, Rowse Architects has partnered with towns, cities, and public agencies across Massachusetts. We are experienced in serving as public designers and navigating the procurement processes for Chapter 149 and Chapter 30 Section 39M projects.

We recognize the unique requirements of public projects. Unlike in the private sector, we understand the need to maintain strict budget control, remain sensitive to evolving needs, and be readily available to meet with client representatives as needed. Our strong reputation is built on a deep commitment to client service, thoughtful design, and efficient project management.

Rowse Architects is a full-service architectural design firm that believes in community, collaboration, and creativity. For over 35 years, Rowse has provided their clients with reliable architectural services including: planning, design, value engineering, interior programming, production, and construction administration. It is the goal of every staff member at Rowse Architects to assume the role of the resourceful collaborator – one who listens, defines, creates, documents, and executes.

With offices in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, Rowse has been part of the New England fabric since their founding in 1989 by Edward “Ted” Rowse. With Rowse Architects’ own in-house strengths and consultant network capabilities, the firm has developed a reputation for product excellence and an unwavering commitment to client satisfaction.
