Education and early career
John Renwick McAslan was educated at Dunoon Grammar School,[3] Dollar Academy and Edinburgh University, Scotland, obtaining a MA in Architecture along with the Diploma year prize in 1978.[4] He trained in Boston USA with Cambridge Seven Associates[5] before joining Richard Rogers and Partners in 1980.[6] He is Executive Chairman of John McAslan + Partners and is active in all of the practice's work.[7]
John McAslan + Partners was named World Architect of the Year in 2009.[8] The practice's work has been extensively exhibited[9] and has received in excess of 75 international design awards,[10] including 15 RIBA national and international awards. John has taught and lectured widely[11] and is a Trustee of numerous cultural bodies.[12]
John McAslan’s work has been widely published internationally in professional journals, newspapers[13] and in the form of monographs,[14] the most recent of which is Transforming King's Cross, a detailed account of the practice's acclaimed[15] and award-winning[16] redevelopment of the station, and Discovering King's Cross, both published in 2012.
In 1997 John established the John McAslan Family Trust,[17] which, as a registered charity, provides support for arts and educational projects both in the UK and overseas.[6] In 2009 the Trust acquired the Burgh Hall, Dunoon. The intention is to create a cross-disciplinary arts venue and multi-purpose community centre, offering audiences diverse cultural opportunities.[18]
In the New Year Honours 2012 McAslan was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire "for services to architecture"[19] and was also appointed Honorary consul of The Republic of Haiti (to the Court of St James's) in the United Kingdom.
