Matthew Fair

Senior Architect
BSc (Hons), MArch, ARB, RIAS, RIBA

I bring a decade of diverse experience as an architect in both new-build construction and innovative refurbishment projects.

As the lead architect on some of our highest profile projects, I am particularly skilled in providing strong and organised leadership amongst teams, resulting in successful buildings. I have a passion for design-led architecture and believe that a collaborative approach with our clients is the best way to create buildings that enhance lives and bring value. I lead our Community Benefits programme and actively participate in consultation events to inspire local communities.

When not involved in architecture, I can be found on the roads of East Lothian on my road bike, producing watercolour artwork, or exploring new places as an avid traveller.

Years experience: 10+
Year joined: 2018
