This design and build project was challenging due to its location on a congested city centre site that is at the heart of Edinburgh’s own revival as a 21st century capital. Over 50 tonnes of steel were brought into the building through upper floor windows and features of the completed 16,220 sq ft transformation, with a project value of £2.7 million, include a ‘pillow’ roof above the atrium, intelligent LED lighting and a pared-back aesthetic providing a stark contrast to the decorative Victorian exterior.
