Firm history The firm
of William Powell Architect was founded, in 1993. It was intended to be and has remained, a private residential design practice. As a sole-practitioner, Mr. Powell serves
each client personally. Collaborations
with other architects are possible when advantageous for large scale work,
but the essence of a small residential practice is the one-to-one nature of
the architect-client relationship.
We work as a team on each
project, with a General Contractor and a structural engineering consultant. William
Barton Powell, AIA began his career in the architectural profession while in
college, in 1969. Over the following
decades he worked for three major firms in Boston, and was the Project
Architect for various large residential and corporate projects. His last major work was with the firm of
Goody, Clancy & Associates on the renovation of the former New England
Telephone Company headquarters building in downtown Post Office Square. It involved the major transformation of its
streetscape, a grand new entry design, dramatic lighting of the building at
night and major lobby changes. WPA uses
the latest in CAD software for full 3D modeling of buildings and
photo-realistic, rendered images as well. Mr. Powell believes strongly in the
integration of the latest in high-technology in the practice and all in
projects as necessary. Websites are
used for private project presentations and electronic documents are shared
with consulting engineers and field supervisors for efficiency, coordination
and the best quality we can achieve. Professional
Certification and Affiliations William
Barton Powell has been licensed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts since
1982, and was granted membership in the Boston Society of Architects
(BSA) and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) in 1984. Mr. Powell
has lived in Brookline, Massachusetts since 1982 and serves his neighborhood
as an elected Town Meeting Member, and the Town as an appointed member of the
Advisory Committee. He has
participated in numerous community and neighborhood issues and committees
involved with the design review of town projects and building preservation,
and a broad range of citizen concerns. References
