#ThrowbackThursday 🔙 🔙 to the Fife Arms project, an incredible refurbishment of a historic hotel located in the heart of Braemar. This unique property boasts 46 individually styled rooms, each telling a local story with carefully researched themes, furnishings, and decorations. RSP played a pivotal role in this project, handling the full M&E design services. Our goal was to ensure these modern systems blended seamlessly into the historic fabric of the building while meeting or exceeding current building standards. The project was also driven by sustainability, and we successfully delivered an energy-efficient design within a challenging historic structure. #TBT #Hotels #DesignTeam #MechanicalDesign #ElectricalDesign #Sustainability Graeme Fraser | Barry McAvoy | Alan Affleck | Craig Dickson | Ian Rogers | Iain Coull | David McIntosh | Niall Smith | Brian Cooper

We're finishing this week on a high note with this article from The Herald Scotland 📰 We have submitted a major planning application for a proposed new building to replace the existing Darwin Tower at The University of Edinburgh's King's Buildings Campus for the School of Biological Sciences. The design will create both a new "front door" and a focal point for the school, and with physical linkages to the existing buildings, will transform this corner of the campus into a modern bioscience hub. The overall design embodies a natural contemporary feel throughout, from the earth tones in the façade to the natural materials and daylighting in the interiors, to provide a sustainable, collaborative and welcoming environment that supports health & wellbeing, and fosters community and interaction. Professor Thorunn Helgason, Head of School said: “It has been exciting to work with BMJ Architects to co-create this inspirational space. Designed to bring together diverse communities, it will foster the formal and informal connections that lead to the ground-breaking interdisciplinary research and teaching for which the School of Biological Sciences is celebrated.” Goodson Associates + RSP Consulting Engineers LLP + Thomson Bethune + Lichfields UK. #lifesciences #research #biosciencehub #theuniversityofedinburgh #theheraldscotland #projectsscotland #sciencearchitecture   https://lnkd.in/etNxtZND
