Alan Dunlop Bio - Alan Dunlop Architect Limited

I have 23 years experience as an architect and as a partner in a partnership
which was one of the most respected in the UK and considered to be at the
heart of architectural and cultural life in Scotland.
Each of the projects specially featured in this publication have been chosen to
show the depth of my experience as a designer and team leader and because
they have become exemplars: a hotel for an international chain hotelier; a school
for children who are blind and deaf; a speculative office development; low cost
starter workshops and the regeneration of a Grade A listed railway station.
They have received a high number of national and international awards
for architecture, conservation and urban design and have influenced urban designers,
practitioners and teachers both in the UK and the United States.
My experience as a practitioner, on projects of a city scale and educator
enables me to successfully link “hands on” practise, with teaching and research to
the benefit of the profession.
I have established a reputation as a committed and respected
educator both nationally and internationally. In the last twenty years,
I have also established and continue to develop an exhaustive contact network,
which includes architects, urban designers, architectural critics and writers
on the urban realm and also among fellow educators in the UK, Europe
and the United States.
I am passionate about improving the quality of the civic and public realm and believe
that a commitment to excellence in design, practise and teaching can improve the quality
of life for all citizens.
