Scottish Architecture took a positive turn in the eighties thanks
to the energy of architects such as Richard Murphy and then got a
huge boost from the National Lottery - though so did the rest of the
UK. No resting on laurels though, because despite one of the largest
architecture prizes in the world, Scottish Architecture is not yet
up there with Swiss, Spanish, Dutch or Japanese Architecture. One
could of course analyse and then criticise each of the above but these
countries have displayed strength of vision carried through into buildings
of real quality.
In Scotland we have a range of buildings from the intricacy of Richard
Murphy to the contextual manners of Malcolm Fraser, the refined rigour
of Reiach and Hall to the bombast and drive of gm+ad, and from the
dominant form-making of Page & Park to the heroic concrete forms of
Elder & Cannon. The Scottish Architecture Tour is backed up by a huge
database of tours, news & events.
