The Gogarburn headquarters for RBS, designed by Michael Laird Architects comprises a 90-acre site in West Edinburgh which includes a landscaped campus of offices, a conference and training centre, leisure centre, staff club and nursery. The main office building of seven ‘business houses’ is arranged around a landscaped internal street.

The tree-lined street acts as the principal focus and circulation spine of the building with coffee shops, hairdresser, pharmacy, branch bank, shops and a supermarket. A Business School, developed jointly with Harvard Business School, is situated on an adjacent parkland site.

The Royal Bank of Scotland World HQ won the Scottish Quality in Planning Award 2006, the EAA Awards 2006 top prize (Silver Medal), Best Commercial Project & Best Interior Commendation at the Scottish Design Awards 2006, the Property Executive Magazine Awards 2006 Office Award, BCO Regional Award 2006 and a BIAL Landscape Award 2006 for the Interior Landscape.
