What we do

Contemporary architecture is the focus of the firm, and to date we have completed many Institutional, Commercial, Municipal, and Residential projects. Through active listening, focused responses, and unequivocal attention to detail, we produce needs-based design results, while balancing design complexities with site pragmatics, program and budget.

Our philosophy on every project is to create a working process that allows us to collaborate with clients and team members on the deepest level

Richard McLaughlin
Police Chief, Belmont MA
The architect has done a fabulous job… He’s taken this to another level because I really didn’t think it could be done. I said we need to have the facilities here to be able to support all our work and this design does that. He made believers out of me and other people.

I am writing to recommend The Galante Architecture Studio. Their work on our Engine 3 Fire Station Renovation has been very thorough and they have delivered more than we anticipated. Early in the process we found an opportunity to pursue grant moneys to aid in renovating the building. With very short notice, Ted Galante and his team advanced the design drawings and wrote extensive grant application information. Their work on the application is one of the reasons for our success in being awarded this fire station grant. We are quite pleased with their work, and recommend them for projects in other municipalities.

Hi Ted, Before I leave today I want to thank you for the great work you did at E63. I recall the many meetings when it all took shape and the perseverance you had to always try to find the best solution. I wish you, Paolo, and your Studio all the best and look forward to our paths crossing again.
Mike Clarke
Director of Public Works, Davenport, IA
As far as I am concerned, your team just rocks. I have done many hundreds if not thousands of projects, and your design team is at the top of the list.
