Nicoll Russell Studios

Our practice was established in 1982 by Andrew Nicoll (who has since retired) and Ric Russell as a result of the successful completion of Dundee Repertory Theatre. The project made an enormous impact at a time when very little was being built in Scotland and immediately offered the Studios a springboard architecturally and in terms of publicity. From those relatively modest beginnings we have grown steadily and have enjoyed creating some of Scotland's best loved new buildings along the way. During the last three decades we have won eight RIBA awards, two awards from the National Civic Trust, a Dynamic Place Award and in addition, a further forty awards recognising the merits of our work. Although the practice is well known for its Civic, Theatre, Licensed Leisure and Civil Engineering projects, the Studios' depth of experience goes far beyond these sectors to include everything from Private Houses to major Private Hospitals.
