Boynton Gateway was designed by SGA as a leading development within Somerville’s emerging life science sector. This LEED Platinum project combines state of the art lab, dynamic commercial space, modern amenities, and retail space along the rejuvenated street front. The main design gestures of the project are the unique varied cladding and the emerging volume of the penthouse expression. The spacing and organization of the facade allows for efficient lab bench spacing while creating an exciting pattern, texture, and light manipulation towards the developing public sphere.
