Based in Dumfries and Galloway, South West Scotland,

Meta Bricks was founded by experienced local constructor and developer Derek Carruthers, bridging the gap between his construction experience with modern forms of technology. Originally used solely in-house for his own construction company, Derek wanted to make this service accessible in the local rural areas of Dumfriesshire and Cumbria.

Meta Bricks visualises concepts through 3D modelling, virtual reality and construction drawing services. With our years of experience in construction, we understand the unique challenges the construction and renovation industries face and provide practical solutions that help save time, money, and materials. We combine technical proficiency with 40 years of experience in construction development, blending physical expertise with modern technology.

Whether it’s providing realistic material for planning permissions, knowledge of precise materials and costs, or wanting to visually experience a big decision before going forward - we cater for those looking to plan, build, renovate, extend - or even remove!

We are committed to delivering personalised service, taking the time to understand your unique requirements and providing solutions that align with your goals and budget. By leveraging our state-of-the-art tools and expertise, we enable you to explore and analyse architectural, construction and interior concepts in immersive virtual environments. This allows you to identify potential issues, make informed decisions, and minimise costly mistakes before breaking ground.

By embracing the latest innovations and industry best practices, Meta Bricks is committed to delivering a competitively priced, money-saving service (our technologies predict every material needed down to the T) which serves not just developers and constructors, but home renovators, business owners, and those looking to transform concepts into reality.

Kitchen Rennovation

Recent Project Examples


One of our recent projects involved a complete re-mapping and design of a kitchen which shortly went to build after. The client wanted something that was light, airy, yet elegant and characterful.

Full Construction Plan - New Developments


One of our recent projects involved construction drawing, then quantity analysis, and then 3D modelling. This is for a large development in Eastriggs, Dumfries and Galloway.
