Aiton & Scott was an architectural partnership formed in London, England in 1930 by Norah Aiton (1904-1989) and Betty Scott (1904-1983), both graduates of the Architectural Association in London. Their office was located at 183 Sloane Street, Chelsea, London
The first, and, possibly, most significant project by the practice was the Aiton & Co. factory office near Derby, England, which they designed for John Arthur Aiton, Norah Aiton's father, in 1930-31. Later projects by Aiton & Scott included other factory offices, a printing works, a crematorium, a church, a private zoo, and houses for private clients.
A photograph of a cocktail bar, designed by Aiton & Scott is illustrated in 'Decorative Art' 1933 (p.54); and a sitting room in a flat in Sloane Street, London, designed by them is illustrated in 'Decorative Art' 1934 (p.83). Both Aiton and Scott were elected Associates of the Royal Institute of British Architects (ARIBA) in 1931.
