Fraser/Livingstone is a new practice, formed in January 2019, and an old one, grown from Malcolm Fraser Architects, which Malcolm led from 1993 to 2015 and where Robin Livingstone worked for 10 years.

MFA were Edinburgh-based and celebrated for award-winning work spanning from arts, conservation and commerce to advising and empowering communities and award-winning homes and placemaking for clients ranging from individuals to Housing Associations, Councils and volume housebuilders.

Their buildings remain loved and full of life, and Fraser/Livingstone Architects will build on this heritage to make new buildings and environments that are rooted in place and the progressive principle that climate, openness and gathering remain central to our wellbeing.

We will also continue to advocate for architecture to put social responsibility at its heart, with its professionalism at the service of the health and wellbeing of society and the wider care we all must take of the environment.

Malcolm Fraser Malcolm used the success of the work of his practice as a platform to advocate for national policy change. He has led initiatives on Banking, VAT and his home city of Edinburgh, and currently lobbies for and sits on bodies advancing initiatives around Housing, Land Reform, changes to the Planning system, national infrastructure financing and the empowerment of communities, many of these activities being with Scotland’s Common Weal think tank and advocacy group, whose Board he sits on. He also led the Scottish Government’s Town Centre Review, which reported in 2013 and sought to bring life and investment to Scotland’s urban centres, and is at the heart of reform at the RIAS.
