Glasgow Cross is one of the city's most historic sites, dominated by the Tolbooth and Tron Theatre.
Designed from the outset to complement its city surroundings, the MerchantBuilding combines Glasgow's traditional blonde stone with a language of contemporary materials.
The Merchant Building has to respond to its heroic historic setting necessitating a sensitive handling of the requirements of new build housing to provide the residents with a stimulating and positive living environment.
