Press Release 14 Sep 2007
Appointment of Visiting Professor
The Scott Sutherland School of Architecture & Built Environment at
the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen is delighted to announce the
appointment of a new Visiting Professor.
Alan Dunlop, a partner of Gordon Murray + Alan Dunlop Architects in Glasgow,
was educated at the Mackintosh School in Glasgow. He brings a wealth of
professional experience developed through a portfolio of challenging and
dynamic designs across the UK, which have consistently won a number of
high profile accolades. More recently, the work of the practice has expanded
into Europe. Alan has taught in a number of schools of architecture in
the UK, and has been published widely, including two practice monographs:
Challenging Contextualism and Curious Rationalism.
It is a critical time for architecture in Scotland, says Alan
Dunlop. Architects require a full range of technical, communication
and artistic skill in order to fully engage. I also believe it is important
that practitioners influence the development of the coming generation.
Alans primary role will be to lead and direct a group of final year
architecture students in their exploration of contemporary urban issues,
building on the experience of his practice, and his personal passion for
the city.
Professor Gokay Deveci said I am delighted. This
is good news for our students. Alan Dunlop works at the leading edge of
practice and will make his professional experience and design skills
accessible to us all'.
