It’s been a pleasure being involved in the design, fabrication and installation process for the Druim Nan Linntean Ecomuseum project up on the Isle of Skye. If you’ve had a chance to explore the Staffin area of Skye we hope the gateway signs and interpretation panels have helped you along the way. Our aim was to share the history and heritage of the landscape and people that inhabited the area.

Follow @druimnanlinntean for more information.
Fabrication by @glasgowsculpturestudios
Designed alongside @fortytwo_studio

Community is the heart of Ruchazie. That’s why transforming this derelict piece land into a Growing & Greening project is so important. In collaboration with @sevenlochs @ruchaziepantry @thegrowing21 and @glasgowcc we conducted a simple but effective community engagement session to hear what’s needed within the community to be implemented in the regeneration of the site.

The Hill House “Behind the Walls” Augmented Re

The Hill House “Behind the Walls” Augmented Reality app allows you to find out more about the people that lived, worked and grew up at the Hill House with an immersive virtual gallery of historic images combined with audio that you can walk around on your visit to the property. You can also learn about the work of National Trust Scotland together with Historic Environment Scotland in monitoring the condition of the house by interacting with 3D Thermal image scans of key locations in the interior and exterior of the Hill House.

The Cairngorms is recognised as one of the best places in Britain to star gaze…Tomintoul and Glenlivet, in particular, have been awarded the prestigious status of ‘Dark Sky Park’ - making it the most northerly park of its kind in the World!

We were delighted to design the ‘Cairngorms Dark Sky Experience’ which has now been installed at the Tomintoul & Glenlivet Discovery Centre. It has been an exciting and informative project to work on together with the Tomintoul & Glenlivet Development Trust and the Cairngorm Astronomy Group 💫 🌌 🌍

Fantastic print quality as always from the guys at @hobsrepro Glasgow ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Willie McSporran - Well my father and mother were

Willie McSporran - Well my father and mother were both local and it was Gaelic in the house, and outside my uncles were Gaelic. Then we would go down to the shore where the fishermen were, and it was all Gaelic. Farmers all about you were Gaelic, didn’t matter where you went there was Gaelic. There’s plenty understand it, but there’s very few fluent enough to sit and have a full conversation on it. Which it is a pity. That’s why I think it’s important to have it and to keep it.

The importance of Gaelic on the Isle of Gigha.

“We don’t own the land, the land owns you. We

“We don’t own the land, the land owns you. We are merely passing through. And our idea is to leave a legacy for the next generation, and that is the target we must keep to. Because in future generations they’ll know that we could be trusted to do our best for the next generation. That’s a path we must follow.”

Words of wisdom from John Martin from the Isle of Gigha.
