McInnes Gardner
McInnes Gardner & Partners Chartered Architects was founded in 1910, which makes it one of the longest established practices in the country. Initially, its work was in the commercial sector, designing buildings for banking and insurance companies. Between the 1930s and the 1960s it earned an international reputation for interior design and fitted out many of the world’s greatest liners, including the Mauritania, the Lusitania, the Queen Mary and the Canberra. Towards the end of this period the firm was appointed to fit out the interiors of the Royal Yacht Britannia.
In the 1970s the firm returned to work largely in the commercial and leisure sectors, collaborating extensively with some of the world’s largest oil companies and hotel groups, completing the Shell HQ in Aberdeen and the Sheraton in Alexandria, Egypt, for example.
More recently, with Alastair MacIntyre and a design-focused team drawing on its illustrious history, the firm energetically works to continue the story of design excellence. In addition to our work in the commercial and leisure sectors, the practice has acquired a substantial reputation in the dynamic world of one-off house design, with many of its projects receiving recognition nationally and internationally.
The firm’s design ethos has always been to carefully listen to clients, seek to bring maximum value to every project, and combine internal space, light and colour with elegant external elevations.
Integration of the latest energy management systems, sustainable building techniques and smart technologies creates homes for effortless modern living.
