Lorn Macneal Architects

Returning to the inverleith area of edinburgh, after some 23 years, we were recommended to lorn macneal architects for our house renovation. what a good decision we made in instructing lma. throughout the project lorn, in his inimitable style, kept a close eye on the work and the support from the lma team was exemplary. it would be remiss of us not to give a special mention to stephen wilson who project managed on behalf of lma. he dealt brilliantly with some difficult situations and contractors and even more demanding clients. nothing was too much trouble for stephen. his professionalism gave us great comfort and confidence that all would be good at the end of the day. and it was. lorn – thank you. we are absolutely delighted with your vision for our ‘glass box’ and everything else. annie and james mackenzie

Lorn and macneal architects provided a high quality and professional redevelopment of our mews home. linda and lorn were at the heart of the project - coordinating all involved parties, and dealing with any issues that arose on site. linda was always available, listening to our own ideas with an expert ear whilst providing her own professional guidance - her personal approach to our project was amazing! the final result has exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend!

We never once regretted our decision appointing lorn macneal architects. we were thrilled from the outset with their creativity in response to our brief. their willingness and enthusiasm to overcome all obstacles was outstanding. with unwavering support and good humour, together with utter professionalism - stephen, sula, lorn, a huge thank you for everything. ewan and cecilia

Top notch! the team at lorn macneal architects was exceptional in every way, including managing the 4,000 miles gap from boulder, usa (client) to st andrews uk (property). their creativity, engineering, collaboration, detail orientation, productivity, site management, permitting, neighbor interface...everything was spot on! their renovation of our st andrews golf place flat has created a truly magical place that we savor and thoroughly enjoy. thank you, lma! you guys/gals are superstars!

The extension to our victorian terraced house in inverleith has transformed the way we live, removing dark and cramped internal spaces and opening up the rear of the house with both light and space to make it a real family home. from the start lorn macneal architects provided a very personalised and attentive service. from translating our vision onto paper and elevating it with their own ideas, to patiently listening to our feedback and incorporating it into the final design. they worked with us collaboratively through every step of the process, from planning applications to appointing a contractor, guiding on local suppliers and assisting with changes and amendments during the build. we would highly recommend lorn and his team and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again in the future.
