Services
The practice was set up in Old Rayne by Ian Duncan in 1982 and moved to Inverurie in 1989 and to its current offices in Inverurie in 1992. It covers a wide geographical area and while the majority of projects are within Aberdeenshire the practice is also regularly involved in work in Moray and has been as far afield as Kylesku in the Highlands, Arasaig on the west coast, Dornoch in Rosshire and in Bergen, Norway.
We can provide the following architect's design services in full or in part. Our aim is to be as flexible as we can be and following discussion on their needs and wishes we can provide each individual client with a fee quotation for the level of service required for their particular project and circumstances.
Our clients had purchased a traditional two up two down farmhouse which had become too small for modern living. To accommodate a growing family an extension was required which would increase the floor area six fold while remaining sensitive to the existing building and responding to site topography.
A traditional cottage which had been unsympathetically extended and remodelled occupied this site. With little architectural value remaining a decision was taken to replace the house with a traditionally proportioned 1 storey family home. The Scottish larch cladding has been left untreated and will in time weather to a beautiful silver grey colour and last for many years.
The brief was to transform three semi-derelict cottages (two semi's one detached) on the banks of the River Deveron into a fishing lodge. Our approach was to sympathetically restore the existing buildings externally whilst creating modern functional spaces, including guest suites and kitchen/dining facilities within.
