Ceilings don’t have to be boring.

ACTWO architects continues to grow, as the french magazine Architecture Bois published the Lincoln Residence in their special 10 year anniversary, celebrating some of their favorite projects published over the last ten years.

The new addition to the Fort Point in Boston, BLADE, is up and running.  They held a grand Launch Event last Friday to celebrate, and the only thing that looked better than the guest list was the space itself.  While the space has been in use for daily office activities for couple weeks, this was the first opportunity for the nightclub setting to be put to its full use, and it did not disappoint.

This guy had a good time.
