Somner Macdonald Architects

General information

SomnerMacdonaldArchitects operates in Edinburgh & North Berwick

We specialise in high quality residential projects. We successfully transform Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian houses to suit today’s lifestyles. We spend time to get to know our clients and the visions that they have for their homes.

We take care with our design, to allow us to get the most of out each situation, with the least intervention. We strip away the layers that have been added by previous generations, to reveal the original forms and features of each building.

We consider carefully sustainability. We design to utilise what exists and we select materials thoughtfully and sparingly. We aim to create processes and environments that are simple, straightforward and sublime. We work to deliver quality and good value.

We believe in the overall approach where less is more.
