Alder is the brainchild of Scottish architecture practice Mary Arnold-Forster Architects.  

Beautifully compiled with inspiring photography and stories of considered design and thoughtful creative lifestyle practices from around Scotland.

"Alder is as much about landscape, patterns of life, materials, colours and politics as it is about singular buildings or art objects" -   Mary Arnold-Forster.

Alder 04 expands on the success of its three previous issues, curating projects that build an impression of Scotland and Northern England not simply as a place with scenery, but also one with tactile potential. Alder 04 is about breadth as well as depth, with projects spanning from the Lake District to Shetland. It explores hidden gems, sensitive refurbishments and a selection of 20th century modernism through a spectrum of scales, locations and architects.
