The Inverness-based Maggie's Highland Cancer Caring Centre has won a prestigious award for architecture. The £25,000 Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland (RIAS) Andrew Doolan Award was made to Glasgow design firm Page and Park. Its design for Scotland's fourth Maggie Centre beat nine other nominations to win the best building in Scotland. The jury said the firm had tackled a delicate brief with "disarming wit and comforting good humour". Professor Simon Unwin, of Dundee University School of Architecture, was on the jury. He said: "With a complex tangle of intertwining curves and using a palette of warm and pliable materials, the interior meets uncertainty with companionship and reassurance."
