We were asked by our clients to reimagine their early 20th century semi-detached mass concrete home in a rural setting in County Kildare.

The design does away with unoriginal extensions, instating in their place a contemporary timber structure with an innovative inside-outside space nestled under one big roof. The program includes a semi-open plan kitchen dining room, new side entrance with a utility-porch, and two new bathrooms at ground and first floor.

The structure, materiality and nomenclature have been heavily influenced by the site's setting and the clients' zero waste ethos.

Looking forward to taking this one to site in 2024!
