A new multifamily development in Somerville, MA is setting the standard for boutique living, bringing a refined and quietly luxurious residential experience to life.
Discover The Nia Residences: a name as intentional as the design behind it. When our client approached us, he wasn’t seeking a name that blended in. He wanted something that meant something: a name that could live on. He found it in his daughter’s name. Nia is more than a moniker; it’s a gesture of familial love, a nod to heritage, and a foundation for a legacy. It speaks to what the building represents: a deeply personal investment in place, people, and permanence.
While boutique in size, The Nia is built with the thoughtfulness typically reserved for large-scale developments. Every touchpoint, from the brand voice to the construction signage, was crafted to reflect the same values that inspired its name: care, character, and continuity.
The Nia Residences deliver what matters: comfort with clarity, beauty with purpose, and a sense of space that invites you to settle in. With beautiful 15 homes, it’s an intimate building, full of thoughtful details that balance privacy and connection. At the Nia Residences, residents will feel the difference.
