Graham Acheson

Architect and Director
MA (Hons), MArch, ARB, RIAS, RIBA, Certified Passive House Designer

I am a Certified Passive House Designer and specialise in residential projects, covering both new-build and the refurbishment of historic and Listed buildings.

I share my experience and breadth of knowledge across multiple sectors with our project teams to deliver large-scale affordable housing projects, housing for older people, private developer ventures, and bespoke individual homes for private clients.

Playing an integral role in the marketing and promotion of our Practice, I oversee our Human Resources management and ensure the integration of sustainable design principles in all of our projects.

I devote my free time to my family, and to hobbies such as golf, swimming, and skiing. I also find fulfilment in my volunteer work with the Edinburgh Merchant Company and my local church, giving back to my community and making a positive impact beyond the realm of design and architecture.
