Gray's architecture is inspired by the work of Alvar Aalto and Arne Jacobsen (particularly the latter's St Catherine's College, Oxford) and the discipline of the grid. | Private and Business AddressesThe following private or business addresses are associated with this : | | Address | Type | Date from | Date to | Notes | | 4A, Rutland Square, Edinburgh, Scotland | Business | c. 1985 * | | | | 23, Stafford Street, Edinburgh, Scotland | Business | 2011 * | | |
