Six people, one studio, and no house style
Dunarrow was set up in Glasgow in 2016 to take on work that arrives with a difficulty already attached: a site that floods, a building that is listed, sixteen owners who have to agree.
Gallowgate Works, the spine corridor, three weeks after handover.
Who you will work with
The person who visits your site is one of the six below, and they stay on the job until it is finished. We do not run a separate delivery team.
- Duncan Arrowsmith Director, ARB registered With the studio since 2016
- Mairi Kerrigan Associate — housing and retrofit With the studio since 2018
- Sanjay Bhattacharya Architect — public buildings With the studio since 2021
- Tolu Okonjo Technologist — warrant and construction With the studio since 2019
- Rhona Lindsay Architectural assistant With the studio since 2024
- Euan Farquhar Practice manager With the studio since 2017
How we are appointed
- Appointment
- RIBA standard professional services contract, unamended.
- Insurance
- Professional indemnity held at £5m for each and every claim.
- Invoicing
- Monthly in arrears against stage completion. Payment within 14 days.
- Copyright
- A licence to build on payment. You keep the drawings either way.
- Travel
- Included inside the central belt. Charged at cost beyond it.
Work we turn down
Work we cannot visit inside a day, competitions without a fee, building work under about £60,000, and any job where the client and the site owner are in dispute. Saying so at the first call is cheaper for both of us.
