David William du Roi Aberdeen (13 August 1913, Poplar, London – 15 January 1987, Enfield, Middlesex)[1][2][3] was an English architect.

In 1948, Aberdeen won an architectural competition to design the new TUC headquarters building in Great Russell Street, London.[4] Staff began to move into the offices in 1956 and the building was officially opened in 1958. The building is Grade II* listed.[5]

Congress House was officially opened on 27 March 1958 along with the unveiling of the sculpture by Jacob Epstein, intended as a memorial to the dead trade unionists of both world wars, in the courtyard.[6] It was one of the earliest post-war buildings to be listed at Grade II*, in 1988.[7]

Aberdeen's other work includes the Aircraft Assembly Buildings at Filton, Bristol (jointly with Eric Ross), 1947-9, the Swiss Centre in Leicester Square, London, 1961-8,[7] and Shrewsbury Market Hall, 1965.[8]
