Kesson Court not only won the Saltire Housing Design Award but also the CIOB Building Award and the Saltire Medal at the Scottish Parliament event.

Designed by ICOSIS Architects, Kesson Court was completed in 2018 and contains 18 two-bedroom amenity flats, three two-bedroom wheelchair cottages and a communal garden.

Helen Murdoch, CEO at Hanover (Scotland), said: “We are delighted that Kesson Court has won these prestigious awards and that we have been recognised for this great project. Kesson Court housing development is a great space and we are really pleased with the progressive design and features which will enable our residents to live the lives they want.”
