Biographical Info

Schwartz/Silver is a nationally recognized practice that is committed to architectural excellence in the public realm. We serve museums, libraries, academic institutions, and public agencies in New England and across the country with work that is respectful of the physical context, inquisitive in approach, and authentic to its own place in history.

At Schwartz/Silver, we believe that well-managed collaboration drives innovation and lasting design quality. Each project is an adventure defined by the particular circumstances and participants, rather than reflecting a standard design style or process. We frequently work within historic and/or urban settings to adapt existing buildings or create new ones; we are problem solvers, developing elegant, often unexpected, solutions to difficult design challenges. We create projects that are relevant and responsive, and architecture that strengthens and supports the evolving needs of communities.
