St Andrews Links Trust operates, maintains and promotes the seven public golf courses that constitute the internationally renowned “Home of Golf” in St Andrews, Scotland. Over time, expansion of the Trust’s charitable remit and related activities resulted in it outgrowing dispersed office facilities. The new Headquarters building was commissioned to sit quietly yet confidently within the green surroundings of these public golf courses. The design draws on the pavilion like forms found in the golfing landscape while also being grounded into its context by a heavy sandstone base that grows from an existing boundary wall on the site.
