4 House / TAKA

Sebastian Jordana — Sun, 27 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000

General
This new-build house is located in a semi-mature housing estate typical of Dublin's outer suburbs. The site is located in the side-garden of an existing corner house. The laying down of the housing estate, consisting of a series of similar housing types, in the late 1970s has resulted in a coherent and robust architectural context.

3 Mews Houses / ODOS architects

Victoria King — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 00:00:00 +0000

The site for these three mews dwellings is located on an industrial laneway in Dublin 8, previously devoid of domestic life. This industrial setting was instrumental in informing the architectural language of these dwellings. From the outside, the three dwellings appear as a mysterious, robust and impenetrable mass. The cantilevered upper section is a composition of powder coated metal industrial flooring planks arranged in a structural steel frame. These voile like planks have been laid out in varying widths to create a rhythm to the street elevation and have been periodically doubled in depth creating a moiré or interference pattern. At night the front elevation comes alive; its transparency is realised when each property is lit from within. Views of foliage and tree tops coming through and over the front screen hint at what lies beyond and it is only as you pass under the front cantilever through the powder coated metal plinth that the warm, light filled heart of the building is exposed.
