Northcross keeps Scottish prize

NORTHCROSS has been named Robert Horne Scottish Design Consultancy of the Year for the second year running.

The Edinburgh consultancy topped the table in Scotmedia’s surveys, which covered consultancies’ financial health, opinions of design buyers and the views of fellow Scottish consultancies.

Northcross cites its 94 per cent increase in turnover as key to its success. Managing director John Slater says: “To win once is an achievement, to win twice is outstanding.”

EH6 and Pure Design claimed second and third prizes respectively, with Graven Images topping the client poll. EH6 won the admiration of its peers and Tayburn McIlroy Coates presented the best financial account.
