Mary Arnold-Forster

Having qualified as an architect in 1992, Mary Arnold-Forster has spent the last two decades working on projects on remote and wild sites across the highlands and islands of the west coast of Scotland.

Working independently, and in conjunction with Dualchas Architects, she has focused on creating quiet, restrained and beautifully crafted structures, based on a rigorous study of site, context and landscape. Arnold-Forster’s practice is grounded in a belief that architecture should not only be fit for purpose, but should lift the spirits.

The Modern House Says
"Mary's beautiful timber structures have all the vitality and honesty of a remote Scottish glen."
