Eck MacNeely Architects has earned its reputation as one of Boston’s preeminent Boston architecture firms. For over forty years, we have followed our conviction that the opportunity to create the spirit of a space lies in every architectural design detail. Our Boston architecture firm’s goal is to convey a clear sense of place so that the energy and emotion of the daily rituals of living, working, learning, and playing can be felt within the building’s walls.<\/p>

Our Boston Architectural Firm’s areas of specialization are custom homes and private campus buildings throughout New England. We also offer the highest level of interior design services. So whether you are a homeowner contemplating a new custom home or renovation, or a member of a private school or college community seeking to re-imagine your campus architecture, we can work with you from conception to completion.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\tTestimonials\t<\/h1>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\tOur firm had the distinct pleasure of building one of Eck MacNeely\u2019s signature projects. Not only was the architecture and design superior but they executed the plans and specifications meticulously. It was easy to bring their thoughts and visions into reality due to their commitment to thinking all the details through and communicating them both verbally and in plan format. The quality of our work was able to be at its highest level due to their commitment. As a team member on the project we felt included, valued and respected in our relationship with Eck MacNeely. Their commitment to collaboration and teamwork permeated the entire project. If you are looking for an Architectural Firm that is of the highest quality, professional and has a clear commitment to the entire TEAM you bring together you should look no further than Eck MacNeely they will not disappoint you.\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t

\n\t\tTestimonials\t<\/h1>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\tEck MacNeely are an absolutely extraordinary firm. We hired the firm to design our dream house on Block Island. The entire process, communication, value and work product and ability to meet deadlines were flawless resulting in a home that exceeds our dreams. Jeremiah Eck and his team are thoughtful \u2013 they listen, they guide and then take immense creativity and talent and bring your house to life. We are using the firm again this year for our apartment in Boston. I know we will have as much fun once again watching the design take shape. If you are planning to build the house of your dreams \u2013 or just a small addition \u2013 hire Eck MacNeely \u2013 and most importantly \u2013 have them watch over the entire construction process \u2013 they can manage the job and prevent costly problems before they occur.\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t
