On going project to complete a semi subterranean passive house set into a terraced landscape facing south onto the strawberry beds of the river Liffey.









A self build extension and renovation project now entering a fresh phase of transformation, nestled into a sloping bank in Bray Co. Wicklow, this project is our attempt at an ecological retrofit of a 1930’s Urban District Council house.

The triplex apartment of No. 30 enjoys a roof top vista to the former Bank of Ireland Head Quarters bronze cladding.

The subterranean component of the scheme hides a duplex apartment which stretches upwards to catch a slice of sky behind a cast insitu sunken courtyard.



Urban residential project in collaboration with Donal Hickey, 2001-06.


29/30 Lad Lane, Dublin, four duplex apartments within two mews lane plots that carve themselves into the backlands of the Georgian City.
