Weaver's Hall

Client Private
Location Foxrock, Dublin
Size c. 5,200sq.m
Status Planning

Weavers Hall is a residential development of 50 new apartment units in the Dublin suburb of Foxrock.

The design concept is to create two different landscape environments for use by new residents. An internal courtyard garden, which integrates the circulation of residents into an internal conservatory space, is proposed as a sheltered space for quiet contemplation. It is a managed garden space, using shaded planted pergolas, the sound of running water and high transparency from inside to outside to merge the built and natural environments.

The outer gardens, surrounding the apartment building are more naturalistic and verdant, drawing on the rich planted character of the surrounding Foxrock locality. Existing mature trees are maintained and augmented, along with the re-planning of lawns and the outer ambulatory path. Water is introduced into this landscape too as a feature within the garden space.

The Building is proposed as a four-level structure, sitting over a parking basement servicing the development. The mass of the building however is expressed as a three-level structure, with a significant setback on the upper level. The mass is arranged in two parallel blocks, orientated East-West to capitalize on the solar movement over the course of the day. Within each block, rooms are generally arranged to provide a quiet ‘sleep space’ into the internal contemplative courtyard, with living areas facing out into the outer garden spaces.

We recently received full planning permission from We recently received full planning permission from Kildare County Council for an older person's housing development in Athy, Co. Kildare. 
The scheme concept involves a courtyard plan arrangement to create a secure central garden complemented by an activated streetscape at ground floor on all sides. The apartment scheme is articulated through a series of pitched roofs to break up the massing and to help create a sense of identity around individual dwellings.
Detailed design underway and we hope to be on site in the new year

The Walled Garden in Dundrum, Co. Dublin is a resi The Walled Garden in Dundrum, Co. Dublin is a residential apartment development of 144 apartments, completed in 2022. The site of the apartment development is within the stone enclosing walls of the historic walled garden associated with the house that was originally known as Gortmore, constructed in mid-1850s.
Positioned adjacent and outside of the enclosing walls of the Walled Garden itself, the stable yard is arranged in a four sided courtyard, three sides formed by narrow stone buildings, with pitched roof forms and the fourth side enclosed with a stone wall and gated entrance.
