Our Johnnie Walker Princes Street project won the Regeneration / Conservation Award at the The Edinburgh Architectural Association awards last night! The project is one example of how creative re-use of our high street buildings can ensure a sustainable future for our town and city centres. #retrofit

This week we made a team site visit to the former Royal High School. The project is mid-way through the enabling works phase to transform Thomas Hamilton’s masterpiece into Scotland’s National Centre for Music and the new home for St Mary’s Music School. #heritage #edinburgh

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes! 🤯 Even for me as a nest researcher, these are the craziest bird nests I've ever seen. Today my paper came out on this rebellious behaviour. And it's like telling a joke... A thread. 🧵

I was grateful to get a wee tour of the old Edinburgh High School site this evening by the Royal High School Preservation Trust. 😍 The site and its views are unparalleled - the venue will be huge cultural and economic asset when it opens in 2027.
