Restoration of one of the most sophisticated Burgh buildings in Scotland, remodelled in 1810 and extended to include the County Buildings. The commission was to improve the circulation strategy, completely removing the poor 1960’s alterations, incorporating a new stair structure around a lift serving all levels. A new extension café/shop area with terrace over was designed to open the building out to the rear garden. The historic principle rooms have been retained and strengthened with new services incorporated for a Community Arts Centre venue for traditional events, exhibition spaces, tourist information office and shop.
