Architecture Scotland Annual 2016

Just shy of 100 buildings are crammed within the 2016 edition of Urban Realm’s Architecture Scotland Annual, the only publication which puts Scotland’s best buildings into print year after year.

Our tenth anniversary edition coincides with a disruptive year which began with the shock death of Gareth Hoskins and ended with the fallout of Brexit but despite the best efforts of a turbulent world good work continues to be delivered, not least in Hoskins Architects own Eastwood Health & Care Centre, an understated hat trick in brick.

It may have narrowly missed out on the RIBA Stirling Prize to Caruso St John’s Newport Street Gallery but the City of Glasgow College Riverside Campus by Michael Laird Architects and Reiach & Hall makes for an alluring civic set piece on a revitalised waterfront. It makes a stunning showcase.
