Director
Back in the early 1990’s Longfellow Design Build’s owner Mark Bogosian worked alongside his father who bought an old farm in Auburn, Massachusetts and developed a few homes, including their own family home. “Through that experience working with my Dad, I discovered that I loved everything about home construction,” he says. “I started doing small projects in my neighborhood, painting houses, carpentry, building decks. I realized there was an opportunity for someone who worked hard and produced quality work at a fair price.” After graduating from Boston College in 2010, Bogosian founded Longfellow Design Build, named after the street of the first house he and his father worked on together. Today, Longfellow has 60+ employees, with three design showrooms on Cape Cod in Falmouth, Osterville, and Chatham.
