Neil Forrester

Architect and Associate
MA (Hons), MArch, ARB, RIAS, RIBA

Joining the practice in 2004, I am an experienced architect specialising in the delivery of large-scale affordable housing and regeneration projects.

My expertise in architectural design, building regulations, technical detailing, and material performance enables me to craft meticulously planned and intricately detailed buildings.

In my role, I programme projects and co-ordinate our design teams to deliver comprehensive packages of information, often implemented using Revit software. As the resident BIM Manager, I spearheaded the integration of BIM within our practice and am an integral member of our Technical Construction Group.

When I’m not immersed in the world of architecture, you can find me pursuing my passions for sailing, and photography. I also take to the skies as a licensed pilot, relishing the unique perspective on Scotland from above.

Years experience: 20+
Year joined: 2004
Specialisms: 

Residential, Civic, Technical Design
