Beacon Hill Mews

Tucked along one of Beacon Hill’s historic mews — narrow service lanes once home to stables and carriage houses — this property reflects a quieter layer of Boston’s architectural history. Many of these former service buildings have evolved into distinctive residences, known for their compact footprints, structural quirks, and unexpected spatial character and between World War I and World War II it housed the Massachusetts office of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom

The original scope for this project called for measured floor plans and exterior elevations. Once on site, it was clear the building deserved a more complete digital baseline. We documented the property in full, producing accurate drawings alongside a detailed Revit existing-conditions model. This allowed the design team to work from reliable geometry while quickly generating additional views, sections, and perspectives as the project evolved.

To help bring the space to life visually, we also developed Twinmotion renderings and created an HDRI environment from 360 capture. This workflow allows the model to sit within a realistic Beacon Hill streetscape, with natural lighting and reflections that match the surrounding environment.
