Gillespie, Kidd and Coia, especially when Andy MacMillan and Isi Metzstein were its creative leaders, produced a series of buildings in Scotland and England which offered breathtaking new possibilities for architecture, but which were designed above all with the welfare of their occupants in mind.During this period, MacMillan and Metzstein created a striking new architectural vocabulary for the churches, schools, colleges, housing and the occasional office that they designed, and the quality of their work brought them to the attention of the international architectural community during the 1960s and 70s. This book offers a careful explanation of why MacMillan and Metzstein's buildings - already well-loved by users and occupants - deserve much wider acclaim now.
