Riverside House/ Full Architectural Service Studio

Set on a spectacular elevated site overlooking the River Liffey, this project involved the complete transformation of a disjointed single-storey red brick dwelling. Over the years, the original home had been extended in a piecemeal fashion, resulting in a fragmented and inefficient layout.

Our design approach reimagined the house from the ground up — reconnecting the home with its surroundings and maximising the site's potential. A carefully designed first-floor addition was introduced to accommodate a luxury master suite, complete with a private balcony offering uninterrupted views of the river. Internally, the layout was restructured to create bright, flowing spaces that open to the landscape.

Completed in January 2019

The project was particularly well received by the local planning authority, who commended the thoughtful design and sensitive approach to enhancing this remarkable riverside site.
