City of Edinburgh Methodist Church

The project is conceived as a series of interventions within different historic settings. The split levels of the existing buildings are linked by a small conservatory and lift extension to the rear, improving accessibility is a common theme throughout. The material palette is high quality, simple and limited – limed oak, slate, terrazzo, zinc, limestone and glass. The materials adapt in tone and quantity to respond to their differing locale but are linked together in a common language of intervention by a ‘frame and panel’ aesthetic evident in each intervention.
