Lindsay Buchan Architects

(Re)creating fine buildings

We are a small architectural practice, based in Edinburgh, dedicated to offering a very flexible, personal service.  We believe in appropriate, sympathetic design from the outset.

We have a reputation for getting our clients what they want.

Named in 2019 in the Country Life Top 30 Architects in Britain for the fourth year running.

“Lindsay clearly understood my brief.  His personal involvement and supervision during the construction process was excellent.  As chairman of the UK’s 5th largest house builder I would have no hesitation in recommending Lindsay Buchan to others or in using him again.”
L.A. Wilson

Residential

Flow and functionality of a home space, coupled with its sympathetic alignment to its immediate environment, are all critical to its successful design.

Home is where the heart is and it’s where ours is too.

Commercial

Productivity, positivity and performance are all influenced by the designed environment.

We make sure this is planned carefully and designed cleverly, right from the start.  We think through every detail to ensure the best possible outcome.

Historic

Historic buildings require experienced, careful and sympathetic handling, in order to cherish and protect their heritage, while developing and modernising them to maximise their functionality and to enhance their appeal.

What we Do

Architectural Design

Many of the properties that we work on are listed buildings and we have a very good track record of successful negotiations with planners and Historic Environment Scotland.

Our solutions to client’s briefs are always creative, positive and enhancing.
