CALA approached Holmes to redevelop the Former Education Building of Jordanhill Campus and create a range of upmarket flats, duplexes and penthouses to tie in with their overall bid scheme. The redevelopment was to capitalise on the prominence of the buildings location with apartments that were contemporarily styled and of generous proportions.

Comprising 5 penthouses, 6 duplex apartments and 15 south facing flats, the scheme re-uses the existing concrete frame of the FEB, adapting it with the addition of a 2 storey steel penthouse structure. The existing frame and concrete cores of the building create strong vertical forms which have been enhanced by the crisp render and layers of accommodation. This is crowned by the stepped roof structure which creates delineation between each individual penthouse and produces a dramatic skyline.
