Architecture in Scotland 2004 – 2006

Architecture in Scotland is a biennale review of Scottish architecture, featuring urban, suburban and rural architecture and landscape projects. The exhibition and accompanying publication reflect the diversity of building projects in Scotland today.

The third in this series of reviews looks specifically at defining “place”, highlighting Scotland’s most recent and distinct projects and opening up a discourse around ideas of place through an examination on issues that are particular to each.

The projects are:

  • A’Chrannag, Rothesay, Bute by Gokay Devici
  • The Drum, Bo’ness, West Lothian by Malcolm Fraser Architects
  • JKS Workshops, Clydebank, Glasgow by gm + ad architects
