Hi H2025

We are thrilled to be the 2025 winners of the Iver Salvesen Award for Combatting Climate Change at the Helping it Happen Awards!

Thank you to Scottish Land & Estates, the sponsors Murray Beith Murray LLP, and the judges for recognising this award. MAKAR build sustainable, low energy, healthy homes, but we do it differently! 

We have taken the road less travelled in an industry that often does not want to be changed, but our incredible team is striving to prove that it can be done, pioneering timber-rich, energy efficient modular home building across Scotland. We are delighted to see the team’s hard work recognised with this award!

Through their pioneering use of timber-based, off-site construction, MAKAR are showing what the future of sustainable building can look like […]they are proving that environmentally responsible design is not only possible, but practical, scalable, and essential for the future of rural living. Their work demonstrates how climate action and community needs can align, creating homes that are efficient, resilient, and rooted in the landscapes they serve.
