An exhibition showcasing the 11 shortlisted buildings for this year’s RIAS Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland Award will be touring Scotland in 2010.
The exhibition by the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland is supported by the Scottish Government and highlights the history of the award alongside information and images of 2009’s shortlisted buildings.
The Scottish Parliament hosted the exhibition at a reception on 20th November 2009 when the winning project: The Small Animal Hospital by Archial Architects in Glasgow, was announced by Patricia Findlay of the Doolan Family.
