IAF Open House Event – North Circular Road

October 12, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 1:30 pm

This event has passed.

We are delighted to announce that our North Circular Road project has been selected to feature in this year’s Open House Dublin festival, presented by the Irish Architecture Foundation.

Completed in 1882 and originally known as 17 Charleville Terrace, this significant red-brick dwelling has been reimagined from a multi-unit building back into a single family home—specifically designed to support trigenerational living.

The tour will invite visitors to explore how a process of careful adaptation and conservation can breathe new life into Victorian architecture. The design approach involved peeling back years of later interventions to reveal the building’s original bones, while simultaneously introducing modern connections in space and light.

Visitors will experience the unique vertical relationship between the main living areas at the entrance level and the lower ground floor, seeing firsthand how these spaces have been opened up to support modern family life while strictly preserving the spatial qualities and intricate architectural details of the original 1880s rooms.

This showcase offers a rare opportunity to see how historic conservation can successfully merge with the contemporary demands of a multi-generational family home.
