Business Details
We founded Sterling Architects in 1980, establishing a firm built on direct principal involvement in every project. Our architectural and interior design firm has since provided design and project management for over 2,000,000 square feet of construction, covering both new builds and renovated facilities. We have developed a flexible design approach that accommodates a great variety of styles and building types. Our registered architects begin each engagement by providing perspective views to visually realize the client's concept from the outset. We then guide an interactive, trial and error process to enhance and modify the design, ensuring it remains within budget while holding true to the desired style.
Our firm utilizes a very sophisticated computer rendering capability to present every room at the earliest stages, making revisions and alternative design studies remarkably efficient. We are known for our knack for getting a good read on what our clients would like right away. Our direct personal involvement assures clients of the professional attention required to deliver quality work. We have been recognized for our innovative contributions, particularly in specialized sectors like senior center design. Our commitment to functional success and aesthetic character is evident in our honored portfolio. We continue to lead with a dedication to client satisfaction and architectural integrity.

Our firm has specialized in senior center design since 1984, completing fourteen facilities across various municipalities in Massachusetts. These designs have been recognized by the Massachusetts Department of Elder Affairs for their functional success and inviting layouts. We have introduced innovative accessibility solutions that avoid an institutional feel and incorporate varied lighting options to reduce glare while maximizing natural daylight.
Architectural Design
We provide comprehensive architectural design for a wide variety of building types, managing both new construction and renovated facilities. Our process begins with presenting perspective views of a client's concept, followed by an interactive process to refine the design. This approach ensures the final structure is defined within budget while faithfully adhering to the desired architectural style.

Our interior design services are integrated into our projects to create warm, colorful, and highly functional spaces. We focus on details that enhance user experience, such as implementing lighting options that maximize daylight and ensure comfort. Our team, including interior designers, collaborates to deliver cohesive environments that meet the specific needs of our clients.
