Old College Quad በ Graeme Pow

Edinburgh University's Old College houses parts of the University's administration, the University of Edinburgh School of Law, and the Talbot Rice Gallery. Originally called the "New College", it was designed by Robert Adam in 1789 to replace earlier buildings. Adam unfortunately died in 1792 with less than a quarter of the scheme built. W H Playfair was appointed in 1816 to complete the buildings. He reorganised Adam's scheme, which was completed around 1820. As funds ran out, the courtyard was never completed and paved. Architects Simpson & Brown was approached in 2005 by the University to complete the scheme. Their historical research established that there were no original drawings, so the paving, in Hazeldean stone, was designed closely following the precedents of Playfair's other Edinburgh buildings. A central grassed area was also incorporated to soften the space, and make it more suitable for events and performances.
