Carol studied at the Mackintosh School of Architecture, Glasgow School of Art and since then has worked for a variety of private practices in Scotland. She has designed and managed projects in London, Belfast and Glasgow. To widen her knowledge of sustainability in relation to the built environment, Carolyn has recently undertaken a Research Masters (MRes) Building Design and Management for Sustainability at Strathclyde University. For her dissertation, Carolyn chose to look at how architectural practices are transforming design processes to move towards a typology of sustainable design.
