Award Win at the Glasgow Institute of Architects Awards 2024

It’s always a great moment to see a project win an award. Last night, the St Andrew’s Drive Affordable Housing scheme won in the Large Residential award category at the Glasgow Institute of Architects Awards 2024.

“St Andrews Drive phases 2 and 3 are the concluding phases of a landscape-led approach to creating a development driven by the principles of NPF4. The project’s initial strategy was to integrate a mixed-tenure social and affordable housing development into the adjacent Pollokshields West conservation area.

“Preserving existing trees was a key objective whilst providing a series of urban villas set in a series of gardens that provide a holistic living environment for its residents. The project seeks to extend the neighbourhood’s sense of place into the new masterplan and knit the community together.”

Celebrating 35 years of DSSR at Windsor House, Harrogate!

The Harrogate Office celebrated 35 years at Windsor House at the end of September by having a team gathering at the Palm Court Café

The office officially opened in Windsor House in September 1989 – that’s two months before the fall of the Berlin wall! We secured local press coverage with Regional Director Matthew Day quoted, “I have been with DSSR for 34 years now and worked at Windsor House for 16 of those. As an office building, it really is quite special. It has such a pull for clients and for the team itself, with beautiful surroundings and the setting of Palm Court. We’re thrilled to have recently signed a new five-year lease, securing our future within the building.’
