Tour Dates & Times
- Sunday 16 October:
- 10am – 2pm
Come visit a recently extended and renovated 1970s semi-detached house in Balbriggan.
We were commissioned to reimagine this familiar domestic layout. Through simple interventions the ground floor plan was redefined, changing how it is experienced.
The house has a difficult orientation, by introducing a tall but shallow extension daylight now penetrates deep into the centre of the house. Glazed timber screens allow the light to linger for longer throughout three interconnecting rooms.
This project is located within close proximity to a former brick factory which was the inspiration behind its playful brick facade design. Only the ground floor will be open to view on the tour.
