Hospitalfield Arts
Arbroath, United Kingdom 2013 – present
Client: The Patrick Allan-Fraser of Hospitalfield Trust Category A Listed
Hospitalfield House is a Category-A listed building in Arbroath. The house is a complex amalgam of medieval buildings and mid-nineteenth century Scottish Baronial construction with early Arts & Crafts interiors. Since 1900 it has been a place for artists and for arts education and has been run continuously as a charitable trust. The fabric of the building has been deteriorating and in 2015 Caruso St John drew up an ambitious master plan for the renovation of the historic buildings and for new architectural additions to enable the organisation to progress and realise its vision as a cultural resource for the twenty-first century.
