AHR Strengthens Glasgow Office With New Appointment

UK architecture and building consultancy practice, AHR, has appointed leading Scottish architecture figure Richard Napier to its Glasgow office.

Richard returns to the company following a stint between 2006 and 2016.

Welcoming Richard's return to the company, Regional director Stuart Bryson said: "We are delighted to have Richard back. With his business development experience and vast working knowledge of the Scottish market, he is an expert on identifying key sites across the region, understanding their potential and taking them to suited clients.

"Richard brings us a wealth of connections from throughout Scotland and the UK, and the possibility of forming more. As a practice with eight offices across the UK, this is invaluable to us as it allows to share our knowledge and experience of the optimal solutions from across the regions, and by working with Richard we can further make the most of our multi-geographical nature. We are excited to discover how the Glasgow office will develop from here."

We are uniquely positioned within the industry by our ability to offer and integrate a range of services in-house; these include architecture, building consultancy, landscape design and interior design.

"I am currently leading exciting projects in the education, residential and defence sectors, and developing hospitality opportunities. This is a prolific time for the office, and with the people we have and their diverse expertise, I am looking forward to many future project opportunities."
