Masterplan

Chivers

Client Platinum Land
Location Coolock, North Dublin
Size c. 40,000sq.m
Status Planning Granted

The Jam Factory Masterplan aims to revive a derelict site within an existing inner-suburban environment.  Recently granted permission, construction is due to start in early 2022.

The Chivers site as it sits today is a sealed off, derelict site within the context of an existing inner-suburban environment. Our proposal seeks to open up the site and the parkland to create a vibrant urban neighbourhood for the benefit of all users in the locality.

The most obvious enhancement of the public realm is the re-opening of access to the linear park along the river Santry. The site is circa 3.61Ha and should be seen as an opportunity site of a size and scale that can accommodate height without undue detriment to nearby property. The linear park provides a sterile boundary that mediates typical conditions of overshadowing and overlooking etc.

Our strategy was to embellish the base design with Our strategy was to embellish the base design with carefully configured additions to create a new internal ‘street’ which would provide a very clear circulation arrangement but more importantly would create a sense of place and would encourage informal employee interaction. Cellular spaces were treated as incidents or ‘buildings’ along the street employing a relatively restrained palette of materials with isolated accents of colour and timber.

We located the cafeteria within the triangular projecting bay overlooking the River Liffey, to exploit the wonderful views for the public heart of the scheme.

The Swan Centre in Rathmines previously did not en The Swan Centre in Rathmines previously did not engage with its southern elevation on to Castlewood Avenue. Our proposal was to create a new commercial elevation complete with café terrace, new kiosk shops and a higher profile entrance to the centre. By re-designing the internal layout of the shops and creating one large food anchor shop we sought to balance the retail offering within the centre. The previously underused surface carpark presented an underwhelming elevation to the centre and by infilling this space with new shops we have sought to improve both the retail environment and the public realm.
