Co-founder, Smith Scott Mullan Associates

One of the founders of Edinburgh Architects Smith Scott Mullan Associates, Alistair has wide experience of all aspects of architecture, from the design of high-quality individual buildings to major regeneration projects, developing a contemporary architecture which makes a positive contribution to our cities and the design of sustainable, low energy buildings and neighbourhoods.
