Nina Berg, class of 2006 and Partner @ Flagg Street Studio won the bid for the design and development of Starlight in Central Square. Starlight Square is a temporary intervention created by the Central Square Business Improvement District, Flagg Street Studio, and Boyes-Watson Architects in collaboration with many community partners. It transforms City-owned land into public space, a parking lot for cars into a place for people. Designed and constructed during the COVID-19 crisis, Starlight builds capacity within the Central Square community for outdoor performance, commerce, learning, dining, and healing, creating safe space for the essential parts of our daily life to happen outdoors.

FLAGG STREET STUDIO
Nina Berg and Matthew Boyes-Watson and grew up blocks away from each other in Central Square, Cambridge. They went to the same elementary school and high school, the legendary Cambridge Rindge and Latin. After college, during late night soccer games, they started thinking about ways to participate in the evolution of their beloved city, always learning by doing. Community charrettes turned into campaigns for local office turned into their first demonstration projects. Ten years later, that dream-and-scheme energy has yet to wane. Flagg was founded in August 2019.
