City cancer centre voted best design in Scotland

The Inverness Courier

Maggie's Cancer Care Centre in Inverness has won the most valuable architectural prize in Europe. The £25,000 award by the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland was presented last night to the winner of the 2006 Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland. Designed by Page and Park Architects of Glasgow, Maggie's was selected from a shortlist of 10 projects. The prize is given annually in memory of Scottish architect Andrew Doolan, who founded the award in 2002. Professor Simon Unwin, of Dundee University School of Architecture, said architecturally the building was a tour de force.
