The Montaje at Assembly Row.

Somerville, Ma | multifamily

Located on the site of an old classic car manufacturing plant, the design set out to evoke the industrial nature of the site. The project consists of two parts. A five story low-rise building blends into the existing fabric of the development while enclosing a large courtyard and pool for residents’ use. A twenty-story tower with a top floor roof deck gives residents an opportunity to live in a high rise while still having the luxuries of a suburban environment.

Planeta Design group has worked with Federal Realty Investment Trust to design the community interiors, including a large lobby and leasing office, a second floor amenities lounge, media room and game lounge, and a twentieth-floor sky lounge.

“Their real talent is delivery of genuinely authentic design because they respond first to identity of place and then they layer on their sense of smart, original design. That prioritization is too often absent in the design world.”
