Text description provided by the architects. This early Georgian city center building has undergone extensive renovation to create a sustainable contemporary home in the heart of Dublin city. The majority of the building was destroyed in a fire in the 1980’s with most of the original features eradicated, leaving only the original front facade and party wall. The design intent was to work with the existing fabric as much as possible. The existing structural beams and posts were retained, and the brick party wall was exposed. At the front façade, the damaged cement pebble dash render was removed, and sliding sash windows were reinstated.
