This month, HAUS had the pleasure of hosting membe

This month, HAUS had the pleasure of hosting members of the Lighthouse Club Haaglanden in Glasgow as part of their study trip to Scotland.

The day was packed with visits exploring architecture, planning and construction across the city centre. We began with a tour of our recently completed residential development, @hollandparkglasgow, before taking a walk through the city and stopping at one of Glasgow's iconic pubs, The Horseshoe Bar to give the visitors a taste of Glasgow .

Before lunch, the group enjoyed a presentation at @cafegandolfi by Raffaele Esposito, 'Designing Tomorrow's Glasgow', which provided a fascinating insight into the city's planning strategies and future development ambitions.

The day concluded with a tour led by Gary Watt of the Dundashill masterplan site, before the group continued to Edinburgh as part of their Scottish itinerary.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success, and to Peter Bense for reaching out to HAUS on behalf of the club and giving us the opportunity to be part of this valuable cultural and professional exchange.

We are pleased to announce the completion of Merch

We are pleased to announce the completion of Merchant City House, a Category B Listed Building on Miller Street in Glasgow, delivered for Unite Students.
Having been involved in the project since 2021, it has been rewarding to see this historic city centre building brought back to life through a collaborative effort from the wider project team.
An essential part of refurbishing historic buildings is finding solutions that comply with current fire, health and safety regulations while allowing characteristic features to be retained in their original form wherever possible. At Merchant City House, this remained a key focus throughout the design and construction process, with the existing staircase and atrium celebrated through sensitive restoration and light-touch design interventions.
We are proud to have played a role in preserving the building's character while helping to create a safe, functional and sustainable space for future use.
A huge thank you to everyone involved in bringing this project to completion. @unite_students | Clark Contracts | @gt_llp | Quattro consultants | @kj_tait | @ofrconsultants | @inside_atkinsrealis
We would also like to extend our thanks to the many specialist consultants, subcontractors and stakeholders whose expertise and collaboration have contributed to the successful delivery of the project.

📐CLAIRE MILNES: IN THE HAUS 📐 Introducing t

📐CLAIRE MILNES: IN THE HAUS 📐

Introducing the newest HAUS member, Claire Milnes, who has joined our team as an Architect. We're looking forward to working with Claire as she progresses her career, bringing fresh experience and ideas to the studio.

Do you have specific interests or experience you're looking forward to building on at HAUS?

My background is in social housing in Glasgow. I'm interested in how we make good housing not just dwellings but communities. How shared spaces are designed so people actually want to use them and how a building mediates between the private world of the home and the public life of the street. That relationship between inside and out, between the individual dwelling and the wider city, is something fundamental.

How people inhabit and experience space translates well beyond residential too. Working across the range of project types HAUS takes on is something I'm genuinely looking forward to.

What's your favourite building or architectural style?

I don't have a single favourite, but two things really shape how I think about architecture. The first is the social housing movement of the 1960s, architects like Neave Brown.

The second is phenomenology, the idea that a building should engage you beyond the visual. The best example I've experienced firsthand is Lewerentz's church in Klippan, Sweden.

Returning to the University of Dundee as a guest r

Returning to the University of Dundee as a guest reviewer for the Year Two final reviews, HAUS architect and Dundee alumnus Elliot was encouraged by the collective effort of students and tutors to create the best possible learning environment amid ongoing staffing challenges within the Architecture department.

Following reduced tutoring support experienced by students during their first semester in 2025, the progress made since Elliot’s last visit in December was clear to see, with both students and staff navigating a difficult year with professionalism and dedication.

This week HAUS welcomed 30 students from Universit

This week HAUS welcomed 30 students from University of Southern California’s Price School of Public Policy for a presentation and discussion centred on our Shawlands Arcade regeneration project.

Their visit to Glasgow forms part of an international planning and housing programme exploring comparative urban development between Glasgow and Los Angeles, with Shawlands Arcade serving as a live case study in discussions around planning systems, regeneration, housing delivery and the evolving role of the public realm.

The conversation offered an opportunity to reflect on how adaptive reuse, community-led thinking and mixed-use regeneration can contribute to more resilient and socially connected urban environments. For us, it was particularly rewarding to contribute to an international academic dialogue and to demonstrate how locally grounded projects can resonate within wider conversations on city-making and future housing models.

As a practice, opportunities like this reinforce the value of thoughtful, context-driven design and the broader relevance architecture can have beyond the boundaries of a single site or city.

A sincere thank you to the @uscprice staff and students for their engagement and generosity throughout the discussion. We look forward to seeing how your research develops.

And thank you our friends @cafegandolfi for hosting us.

As architects, we are constantly driven by ideas and concepts, shaped through exploring the built environment around us and learning from precedent. On a recent site trip to Durham, Ewan Proctor Mason & Chris Stewart took the opportunity to experience two iconic pieces of historic architecture — the Kingsgate Bridge by Ove Arup and Durham Cathedral.

The Old Schoolhouse at Napiershall Street has been

The Old Schoolhouse at Napiershall Street has been shortlisted for ‘Regeneration Development of the Year’ at the Scottish Home Awards 2026.

Delivering the careful regeneration of the 125-year-old sandstone school and adding a contemporary residential building required close collaboration between our partners Kelvin Properties and a multidisciplinary team of specialists.

HAUS Collective's Murray Henderson said: 'Our ambition from the outset was to safeguard and celebrate the former school’s historic character while making it fit for modern residential use and to transform an underused urban site into a vibrant residential environment. That vision has been realised and to have this project recognised is a reflection of what the whole team has achieved together.'

Kelvin Properties Director Marc Taylor said: ‘The Old Schoolhouse development has been extremely popular, with strong sales demonstrating the level of demand for this kind of thoughtful development and the quality of design by HAUS Collective. Kelvin Properties has built a reputation for transforming disused sites and underutilised buildings into thriving residential communities and this nomination is a reflection of that commitment.’
