Winslow Design Associates

At Winslow Architects, we have been dedicated to designing innovative and sustainable housing and community spaces for over 40 years. Our team of experienced architects has built a reputation for creating aesthetically sophisticated and sustainable affordable multifamily housing, custom homes, and community buildings.

Our Story

Our journey began in 1983 when John Winslow founded the firm, drawing upon his design talent and experience working with not-for-profit developers of affordable multifamily housing. Since then, we have completed over 1,000 units of multifamily housing and 100 single-family homes. Our growth and success have enabled us to expand our focus to include sustainably designed, multi-unit community housing for senior citizens and persons with disabilities, as well as municipal buildings, educational facilities, community centers, and historic preservation.
