Architecture

Architecture is crucial to translating a client’s vision into a functional and aesthetically pleasing structure. We play a vital role in ensuring that buildings are well-designed, safe, and compliant with codes & regulations.

Our Architecture would include residential homes looking to build out an addition for a new accessory dwelling unit, a restaurant looking to renovate its dining room capacity with updated occupancy loads, or new business looking to retro-fit an existing commercial space for a change of use.

Building Evaluations

Building Evaluations may be required by CMR 780 Chapter 34 Existing Building Investigation, for projects located in Massachusetts potentially undergoing repairs, alterations, additions, or changes of occupancy.

Our Building Evaluations would include the facilitation of a Chapter 34 Building Investigation and Evaluation report for an Italian restaurant remodel, assessment of the existing conditions for a multi-unit apartment complex, or project narrative for a proposed 2nd floor axe throwing occupancy.

Concept & Planning

Concept and Planning provides a solid foundation for informed decision-making that is pivotal at the early stages of project exploration for effective project execution by laying out a clear vision and future roadmap.

Our Concept & Planning would include laying out a large new construction custom home design, consultation for an expansion to a sustainable hydroponic farming operation, or new construction of a multi-use offices and short-term dormitory for a non-profit addiction recovery program.

Feasibility Studies

Feasibility Studies can offer numerous client benefits, primarily by assessing the viability of a project before significant investment with design, thus minimizing risks and maximizing the chances of project success.

Our Feasibility Studies would include a luxury dental corporation exploring the locations for purchasing property to build a new facility upon, a small business start-up assessing opportunities to occupy various rental spaces, or an infused tea company considering retail store expansion possibilities.

Interior Design

Interior Design is essential to transform a client’s aspirations into a functional and aesthetically pleasing space. We play an integral part in establishing the overall setting and how you feel in the space around you.

Our Interior Design would include a new coffee shop fit out with new service area and equipment, professional services firm looking to relocate and rebrand a new corporate office, or new retro arcade and restaurant with full commercial kitchen optimizing the interior layout of its games.

Testimonials

"Neil and his team were great to work with.

Pricing was very transparent (you won't find that to be very common), and they worked late nights to help expedite our project which was time sensitive. Very much appreciate their hard work and would recommend to friends & family."

"Neil and his team worked with us and were very patient as we came up with different ideas for our space. Creating a gaming cafe, they made sure to apply all our needs and keep it within the city's building codes/regulations. They also were affordable compared to most vendors we were looking at in the area. We were also able to maintain good communication.
Highly Recommend!"

"After researching various Architects, I decided to hire Neil as his fee structure and use of modern software were perfect for my needs. I needed a new layout for a 2nd floor, specs for a new beam, and blue prints for a vestibule addition. Not only did Neil delivered as promised, he exceeded my expectations. He is very easy to work with ... For the price to value ratio, there is no way you can go wrong with hiring Neil for your architectural needs. I highly recommend."

"We asked Neil if he would help make our dream home a reality. We had several meetings and many revisions, my husband kept adding things, and Neil always listened to our needs and made adjustments. He is excited to see our house built and so are we. It's amazing to see your vision put on paper and then watch it come to life. I would recommend Neil to anyone who wants to have plans drawn up. He's creative and willing to help your dream become a reality."

"I went to school several years ago with Neil.
I was waiting on an engineer for a residential renovation I am doing, but I knew he was a licensed Architect so I reached out to him. He got me the answers I needed immediately to get me going. I would highly recommend his services and will be doing so to anyone who asks me if I know of a good Architect in the area."

"I have been working with Neil for a few months now regarding an addition that we want to build on the back of a rowhouse in the South End. He has been extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and patient with me the entire time, and has listened to all of my areas of concern to make sure that we are a good fit to work together. He has gone above and beyond to help me get this project in motion. I would recommend his services thus far!"

"We wanted to express our appreciation for the excellent design service we received from Neil Silva at 8TFive Studio. This project involved taking down walls and installing support columns so the design had to be just right to give our home the more open concept feel that we desired. Neil was a real pleasure to work with, a professional with creative design solutions for our home remodel. We give 8TFive Studio our highest recommendation."
