Greyfriars Charteris Centre, Edinburgh

Location: Edinburgh, UK

​

Architect: Konishi Gaffney Architects

​

Role: Structural Engineering Consultants*

Greyfriars Charteris Centre involved the complex refurbishment and extension of an existing church and adjacent administrative building.

​

The existing building linking the main church and administrative building was demolished and a new, four-storey, link building was erected with bespoke walkways at first and second floor and a new lift descending from second down to lower ground floor. Pre-cast concrete cladding was added to the front elevation with a further timber clad elevation in front of this.

​

The main church hall was transformed replacing the existing mezzanine with an enclosed sacred space and the alterations overhauled the appearance of the church both inside and out.
