Barr Project Wins Prestigious RIBA Award for Aberdeen Regional Sports Facility


Eight Scottish buildings, including several in Glasgow, have won prestigious awards from the Royal Institute of British Architects.

The winners were announced at a ceremony at The Lighthouse in Glasgow last night, and include two buildings designed by Reiach and Hall Architects. The winning projects range from private housing to hospitals – including Stobhill Hospitals – the new Trongate 103 art space in Glasgow, a city centre hotel and a major new sports facility in Aberdeen.

David Dunbar, the president of the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland, said: “There are practices throughout Scotland, of scales varying from sole practitioner to multidisciplinary, multi-director, producing award-winning work which can compare favourably with the best elsewhere in the UK and indeed in Europe.”

The eight buildings are: Aberdeen Regional Sports Facility and the new Stobhill Hospital in Glasgow by Reiach and Hall Architects; Balnearn Boathouse by Mckenzie Strickland Associates: Hotel Missoni, in Edinburgh, by Allan Murray Architects: House on the Hill in Aberdeenshire by Paterson Architects; Infirmary Street Baths in Edinburgh by Malcolm Fraser Architects; the Small Animal Hospital in Glasgow by Archial Architects and Trongate 103 in Glasgow by Elder and Cannon Architects.
