WINNER!!

We won Best Small Commercial Building at the Building & Architect Awards 2025 for our Dublin 8 Workspace Project.
What a shock we got to win in such a high calibre shortlist of entries, and immensely pleased to say the very least. The judges comments were glowing:
‘with its thoughtful and resourceful approach to sustainability, prioritising reuse over waste. The playful interior captured the client’s character, while the thoughtful designand meticulous ex*****on delivered impact far beyond its scale and budget.’
Onwards and upwards for our little practice - what a feeling 😊

SNEAK PEAK
Site photo of this little suburban entrance project which has been a long time in the making! We have so much respect for the tenacity of the self build client who managed to source the bespoke triangular folded metal rain hopper. We cannot wait to see the finished product on a rainy Scottish afternoon, once the rain-chain & basin are installed ☔️

CONSERVATION & CONTRAST
We’re so pleased that our design to refurbish and extend a stone workers cottage in Rathfarnham has been granted permission by South Dublin County Council. We had a lot of discussion with the conservation officer prior to submitting the application and are amazed with her comments on our design
‘the overall design and scale of the proposed extension has been very well thought out within the site context…. The architectural detailing and design have been particularly considered in providing a very sympathetic addition to the existing cottage.’
Now to get it built!! 🏠

‘The sunlight did not know what it was before it hit a wall’
Truer words never spoken - Louis I Kahn.

We visited this incredible uni campus in 2019 as part of our round the world trip which finished up in India and left us incredibly inspired to make buildings that last the test of time. These buildings were recently saved from demolition & we’re hoping to someday go back and revisit!!
