The first phase of the project involves the construction of two of four mews houses opposite an existing terrace creating a lively urban street. The timber frame was prefabricated in a workshop in Monaghan and the structure was erected in a week.
About the Architects:
Wrkshop Architects are based in Dublin, working throughout Ireland on new housing, public buildings and urban spaces with a focus on social and environmental sustainability and intelligent building responses. Since 2019 our work has been recognised and exhibited at the Solstice Arts Centre, Navan, The Royal Hibernian Academy, Dublin, and at the Tallinn Architecture Biennale, Estonia. In 2022 Wrkshop Architects were winners of the RIAI Town Challenge special award, the Creative Ireland Decarbonising Together project, and the Workhouse Union Town Ecologies award.
We take each project on its own merit and work from first principles every time, making buildings and places that are tailor-fit. We are architects who seek to make things better – to design holistically, improve the environment, and enrich the lives of the people who use a space.
