Morrison Crescent, Edinburgh
Canmore Housing Association
Client: Canmore Housing Association
The Crescent was proposed as part of the Practice’s
masterplan for the Morrison Street area, and as such acknowledges
the Circus designed by the Practice to the east. The building
form and architectural language relate to the Circus, yet
develop their own rhythms and details. This gives the building
an individual presence within an architectural whole and establishes
a contextual link with the formal architecture of Edinburgh's
New Town.
