The building won the category of Best Corporate Workplace at the annual British Council for Offices (BCO) Scottish property sector awards.
The FBI-style crime campus, which became fully functional last month, represents the Scottish Government’s largest single investment in architecture in service of the community, bringing a number of law enforcement agencies together for the first time.
