This HQ is located at the Tramway Arts Centre in south Glasgow, Strathclyde, southwest Scotland, UK.
Edinburgh based, Oliver Chapman Architects have recently won a competition to design a community headquarters and garden office within the ‘Hidden Gardens’ landscape project beside the Tramway Arts Centre in Glasgow.
Their first architecture competition win outside Edinburgh, this new building for the innovative arts organisation NVA, will include a single cell ETFE ‘bubble’ roof. It will integrate with the Hidden Gardens, a landscape project also coordinated by NVA, designed by City Design Cooperative collaborating with various Scottish artists.

The architect, Oliver Chapman said that ‘it is to be an introverted building that will make small interior and exterior enclosures within the existing semi-demolished brick structures on the site. We hope that this will help create a sense of security and intimacy for the various communities that may use the building’.
If lottery funding is secured the project could be under-way early next year.
Oliver Chapman Architects are a young practice that have recently finished a dramatic house extension for international lighting designer Jonathan Speirs and also won an Edinburgh Architectural Association award this year for their ‘Bed Box’ project.
