The Arts Faculty group by Robert Matthew, Johnson-Marshall and Partners (John Richards, project architect), is one of the key monuments of Scottish Modernism and represents both the aspirations of the nation for its post-war Higher Education system and the ideals of some of Scotland s premier architects.
