WARD 2 is an architecture, interiors and graphics firm that pursues great design through a grounded understanding of people and place. With sturdy boots, pencil in hand, and eagerness for the unknown, we study each commission's unique history, politics, context, conflicts, and desires. It's from these roots that we tease out opportunities for craft, innovation, and sense of wonder. We started as young designers living and working in Ward 2, a rapidly changing neighborhood in Somerville, Massachusetts. We soaked in the vibrant energy and youthful excitement of our environment and honed our own quirky and unique persepectives to contribute to the conversations and ideas around us. Now located in the city of Medford, we still find inspiration in our roots as well as our ever-evolving envioronments and outlooks. Our creativity comes not from thin air but from hard work and a profound sense of grounding in place. Our projects range in type, scale, and location - from graphics to furniture to buildings. We are trained in architecture, but we'll design anything.
