BOSTON, MA– Studio G Architects recently celebrated the topping off of the new campus at Franklin Cummings Tech, a private non-profit college offering affordable education for those seeking technical careers. This marks a significant milestone in the journey toward providing affordable, transformative technical and trade education within the heart of Roxbury’s Nubian Square.

Studio G Architects’ design for the new campus, in collaboration with Studio ENEE, brings a state-of-the-art educational facility that fosters innovation, collaboration, and sustainability. The thoughtfully designed space aligns with Franklin Cummings Tech’s mission to provide high-quality technical education. The three-story, 68,000-square-foot building features technology-rich learning environments and adaptable communal areas, supporting the institute’s growth and creating an atmosphere that encourages learning, teamwork, and creativity.

The new campus features a range of amenities, including shared classrooms, student lounges, technical labs, and outdoor gathering spaces. A standout feature is the rooftop learning lab, which provides students with hands-on mechanical systems and renewable energy technologies experience, allowing them to engage directly with sustainable practices in a real-world setting and prepare for jobs in the green economy. With a strong emphasis on sustainability, the campus aims for LEED Gold certification, incorporating passive design strategies, energy-efficient systems, and renewable energy sources to reduce its environmental impact.

“Studio G is incredibly excited to unveil this groundbreaking project that is set to provide Franklin Cummings Tech students with the resources and space they need to excel,” says Sally Gibson, Senior Project Manager at Studio G Architects. “Franklin Cummings Tech’s new campus will provide cutting-edge educational facilities while serving as a catalyst for the revitalization of Nubian Square.”

“The opening of our new campus is a significant milestone in our mission to provide transformative technical and trade education that drives economic growth and generational wealth for our students,” says Dr. Aisha Francis, President and CEO of Franklin Cummings Tech. “This facility will stand as a beacon of opportunity in Nubian Square, and create an environment that addresses the needs of today’s students while also anticipating the requirements of future educational programs.”

Studio G Architects is honored to partner with Franklin Cummings Tech on this transformative project and looks forward to witnessing the positive impact it will have on the institution and the surrounding community.
