Alex Liddell - Profile


 Alex Liddell B.Arch Dip Arch ARB RIAS

After graduating from the Mackintosh School of Architecture I worked with some of the better Edinburgh architectural practices before establishing Method Architecture in 2015 to develop a more sustainable approach to design.

Having lived in Edinburgh most of my life, my work is informed by a deep understanding and appreciation for the city and the distinct periods of architecture that make it a beautiful. 

Qualifications as Passivhaus Designer and Hygrothermal analysis are the result of a life long interest in the sustainability of design, how we can build healthier homes.

Method Architecture is the distillation of 25 years of architectural experience on the domestic scale.
