About Mellowes & Paladino
For more than a quarter century, Mellowes & Paladino Architects have been designing custom residences, new additions, and renovations of existing homes in city, town and coastal settings in Boston and throughout New England.
While our work is informed by a traditional palette, each project represents a process of exploration, synthesis and innovation. We are able to achieve excellence through insightful and sensitive design solutions that are reinforced with a constant refinement of detail.
The team at Mellowes & Paladino Architects share many years of combined experience in the New England Design community. Bob Paladino leads a group of creative, skilled architects and designers who each have expertise in custom, high-end residential architecture and design.
Completed projects extend to commercial and institutional work. Along with builders, landscape architects, and interior designers, we function seamlessly as a unified team to assure that the wishes and aspirations of the client are reflected in the finished residence.

“We have engaged Bob Paladino on three projects. His designs display wonderful creativity, attention to detail, and a sense of space and light. He oversees the project as if it was his own home. Most importantly, he listens carefully and has an innate sense of our wishes for what we imaged our homes to be.”

“Bob Paladino is a true professional. I have worked with him on three projects and would love to do ten more! He is a pleasure to work with because he is approachable, respectful and has integrity. Bob has wonderful taste and he worries about the details so his clients don’t. My husband and I have recommended Bob countless times and many of our friends are satisfied clients. In addition to being a fantastic and experienced architect, Bob is truly a good and kind person - again, a pleasure to work with.”
