Fantastic news was received around the country this week with the announcement of the Scottish Design Awards 2026 finalists.

jmarchitects were delighted to learn that both Hawkhill Primary School for West Lothian Council and our very own Lisa Rubython have been listed as finalists in the Education Building or Project and Young Architect of the Year categories respectively.

“We are delighted that Hawkhill has been shortlisted for the Scottish Design Awards Education Building of the Year! The new school continuous our recent work with West Lothian Council, creating a contemporary and engaging learning environment for the expanding town of Winchburgh”
