Derek Bloom Architects voted Best of Boston

Derek Bloom Architects of Marblehead, MA was awarded Boston Magazine’s 2008 “Best of Boston” Honor for Eco-friendly Architecture. The award appears in the Winter 2008 issue, and reads:

“A dome made out of recycled hay bales may be ‘green,’ but most clients want a place that actually looks and feels like a house. Derek Bloom gets it- whether he’s planning a Maine cabin that maximizes sunlight while using local materials, or renovating a Back Bay townhouse with a geothermal heating system. Bloom knows that green design requires exacting attention to material choices, energy-system design, the orientation of windows and doors, and a neat, compact floor plan.”
