Succoth Avenue, Reiach and Hall Architects


Saltire Society Housing Design Award Winner 2004
Winner:
'Succoth Avenue by Reiach and Hall is housing at the top end of the housing market in an extremely affluent suburb. It picked up a Saltire Award because it is extremely well designed, detailed and built, but it is also an imaginative approach to the challenge of building a block that reflects the qualities of the surrounding suburban villas.'
Words by Penny Lewis, Editor Prospect journal and Saltire Housing Design Award judge
The Saltire Society Housing Design Awards 2004, presented by Johann Lamont MSP (Deputy Minister for Communities) at the Glasgow Lighthouse, credited 4 awards and 6 commendations to projects which - in the words of the Society - "....encourage new developments which can strengthen and enrich the country's cultural life.'
Succoth Heights, Reiach and Hall's project for AMA (New Town) Ltd. at Succoth Avenue in Edinburgh was awarded both the Saltire Society Housing Design Award 2004 and the coveted Chartered Institute of Builder's Good Building Award 2004. Mike Underwood, the CIOB Scottish Chairman, presented the Good Building Award 2004 to Dr Ali Afshar the commissioner and builder - AMA (Construction) Ltd - of Succoth Heights.
These 2 Awards for Succoth Heights follows on from the project's success at this year's Scottish Design Awards where Succoth Heights won the 'Best Housing Project 2004' and Reiach and Hall's Design Director & Chairman Neil Gillespie was voted by his peers as 'Architect of the Year 2004'
1 Succoth Avenue realises - for Neil Gillespie - 'a long dreamed of opportunity to explore the making of contemporary homes which can stand comparison with the quality of Edinburgh's unparalleled traditional city living'. 1 Succoth Avenue - Scottish Design Awards winner, Chartered Institute of Builder's Award winner and now Saltire Society Housing Design Award winner.

Saltire Awards - 2002
The announcement of the winners of this year's Saltire Society Housing Design Awards will take place on 7 Nov 2002 at The Lighthouse, Mitchell Lane, Glasgow. The awards will be presented by Dr Elaine Murray, MSP, Deputy Minister for Tourism, Culture and Sport and the prize giving will be followed by two lectures and a discussion. Gordon Benson, Benson & Forsyth Architects, the designers of the Museum of Scotland and Jonathan Woodroffe, S333 Studio in the Netherlands will talk about their work and housing design.

The Saltire Society was established in 1936 in order to conserve and promote Scottish cultural life. The founders, were strongly influenced by the work of Sir Patrick Geddes and under the leadership of Robert Hurd, Geddes's son-in-law, Saltire set out to improve the quality of the built environment. In 1937 they established a Housing Design Award that, with the exception of the war years, continued and developed to reflect the changing concerns of the time.
Hurd was keen that new homes, whether rural or urban, respected Scottish design traditions. Today's panel rewards architects and developers producing new homes that have a strong relationship to their environments and involve successful 'place-making'. Currently panel members are particularly keen to promote the development of a more thoughtful approach to the layout and design of private sector suburban developments. The panel also look for innovation in the planning, construction, energy efficiency of new homes, as well as encouraging the creation of affordable homes in areas where the market has failed to deliver.
