Archial Architects, one of the largest architecture practices in Scotland and the UK, has completed a £12 million extension to the Bon Accord Centre in Aberdeen.

Murray Restrup, Senior Architect at Archial, said about the Bon Accord building, “The brief for this project was to maximise the retail space for a single chain store tenant whilst increasing car parking for the centre as a whole.

The project also involved the creation of new landlord facilities and the re-configuration of service access to integrate the new retail space into the existing centre. Provision was made for services and access to facilitate the tenant’s fit out.”
