Glasgow College of Building & Printing
Location: Glasgow, Scotland
Architect: Peter Williams of Wylie, Shanks & Partners
Completed: 1964
Status: Category B Listed
Brief Overview: Glasgow College of Building & Printing was one of the first commercial high rise structures in Glasgow. It was designed by architect Peter Williams of Wylie, Shanks & Partners- with the sculptural forms at the top said to be influenced heavily by Le Corbusier. From 2014- for the Commonwealth Games- a large section of the southern elevation has featured the iconic 'People Make Glasgow' wrap. Following the construction of a new City Campus the building became unused- and several plans for redevelopment of the Category B Listed building have been announced since 2019- including offices and hotels.

Our concrete sculptures are individually hand cast in solid concrete. This means that each piece will have distinctive markings and minor blemishes due to air bubbles in the concrete. This is a natural part of the material and will mean that no two pieces are ever exactly the same.
