Modern Luxury Interiors Awards NEDC Best Design Build Firm in Boston 2026
At New England Design & Construction (NEDC) we are an award-winning, high-end architectural design build firm servicing clients across Boston’s MetroWest and the GBA.
We are NEDC: Architects Who Build
Established in 2005 by myself after graduation from Tufts Architectural in the vision of the Architect as a Master Builder, today NEDC is a vibrant creative firm of 25 architects, interior designers, project managers and artisan builders.
We pride ourselves on our integrity to process, quality, honesty and client satisfaction. Our clients often become friends for life, and it is meaningful for us to be a foundational part in crafting the spaces that become their homes: a gathering point for family and beautiful launching point for dreams that is designed and built exactly to their specific needs and aesthetic taste.
Design is an integral point of our process–we take our clients at their initial concept and help them develop this fully into a precise vision: we then usher them through complete architectural planning and interior design followed by a full artisan build. Our designers are trained builders, so the project is thoroughly planned and value engineered within the client’s determined budget. Our work is then followed by a five-year warranty.
The creation of the built environment is filled with beautiful pictures and imagery–the intangible is the process and experience of what it takes to create this. What does the client go through and experience? Is it stressful…or a creative joy while traveling a meaningful path in the creation of a forever home that will be passed down through generations.
We pride ourselves in our candor concerning cost, our care for our clients and the meticulous attention to detail and quality that such a process requires.
Our client’s collective voice speak to this:
Guild Quality Reviews: New England Design & Construction
Houzz Reviews: New England Design & Construction
“NEDC did a major design and renovation on our house in 2024, centering around the kitchen. It’s still amazing to me how much positive impact this project has had on our lives. The new open space is just a joy to be in, even when we’re not cooking, but even more so when we are. We are grateful for Schneidee’s guidance through the design phase, recommending so much we would never have thought of ourselves, and generally being sure the new space would work for us. And it was tremendously comforting to have someone of John’s expertise and resourcefulness guiding us through construction. Both Schneidee and John were a real pleasure to work with. I must admit, I thought “lifting spirits with spaces” was just a nice slogan, but it is indeed a real experience we have everyday. Super happy and super grateful!”

“I can now say that NEDC stands by their work and stays true to their ethos. That speaks volumes for an industry which can sometimes feel less focused on the human side of the work and more on status and end product media visibility. NEDC has proven that their clients’ experience and love for their space is central to the firm’s approach. They truly stand by their work and have proven to be trustworthy! Plus they do beautiful work construction wise and aesthetically! For these reasons, I would recommend them wholeheartedly.”
