WTArchitecture

WT Architecture is a renowned architectural practice, dedicated to creating buildings that bring joy to those who inhabit them. With offices in South Queensferry and Argyll, we have grown to become a team of talented architects, designers, and architectural assistants, passionate about crafting innovative and beautiful buildings that make a meaningful impact on the lives of our clients and the wider community.

Workspace and Design Approach

Our work is rooted in a deep understanding of place and landscape. We believe that buildings should be responsive to their surroundings, informed by the local culture, climate, and environment. Our design approach is centred around an ethos of craftsmanship, collaboration, and connection to place. We take the time to understand our clients' needs and desires, crafting compelling narratives for each project that engage planners, neighbours, and communities.

How We Work

Our team of experienced architects and architectural assistants is driven by a passion for innovative and beautiful design. We programme and resource our projects to ensure our clients receive a personal and high-quality service, while our studios in Edinburgh and Argyll foster an ethos of innovation, mutual support, and respect. We bring an attention to detail and a commitment to finding exceptional solutions to each project's unique brief.

Collaboration and Craftmanship

Collaboration and teamwork are at the heart of our design process, from early conversations with clients to the final construction of a project. We believe that meaningful relationships with our clients, contractors, and stakeholders are essential in bringing a design to life. Our designers work closely with contractors, ensuring that the construction team truly understands the design ambitions and can effectively incorporate their expertise into the final product.

Community and Architecture

We believe that good architecture can bring people together, fostering a sense of community and belonging. Our approach is rooted in a deep understanding of the people and places we work with. We take a holistic approach to design, considering the needs of both public and private spaces, homes, and communities. Our commitment to building trust, collaboration, and respect reflects our commitment to delivering projects that inspire and affirm those who will inhabit the spaces we create.

Our Team

WT Architecture was founded in 2006 by Architect, William Tunnell, following the expansion of his work as a sole practitioner. Over the years, we have grown to form a highly experienced ten-strong team of Principals, Associates, Architects, and Architectural Assistants, working across Scotland from our studios in Edinburgh and Argyll.

Design Process

Our design process is characterised by collaboration, attention to detail, and a commitment to exceptional craftsmanship. We believe that good natural daylight, comfortable and beautiful surroundings, outlook, flexibility of space, and attention to detail are key ingredients in making places that are a pleasure to be in. Our studios reflect these elements, designed to inspire creativity and innovation.
