House extension and refurbishment, Sandymount, Dublin.
The design principle of the extension to this family home was to maximize the daylight inside and outside, to use standard construction methods to minimize cost, to use a contemporary language distinguishing old with new and to create a multi-functional family room where the family could stay all together while each of them still doing different things: cooking, eating, reading, use the computer, playing and also extending all of this with the outside patio using full width timber door/window and keeping flush the internal and external floor.
