Sustainable Design Professionals in Clane, Co. Kildare, Ireland

“We worked with Josh to design and project manage an extension to our 1930s house in Dublin 7. It included demolishing our old kitchen and lean-to sheds, and building a new kitchen/dining room with a downstairs bathroom / utility room. Beforehand we visited several clients in the local area who had positive experiences with House Architects. The pricing structure was very clear. Josh was a pleasure to work with, and unflappable, which is always very reassuring. Once we had designs we were happy with, he worked to put the project out to tender and managed the relationship and the payments to the builder. This was the most valuable aspect for us. Particularly towards the end of the project, there were probably issues where we would have let the builder cut corners, but it was great to have Josh there to hold the line and ensure the project was completed to specification. We've been living with our extension for 18 months now and we're delighted with it - it's transformed the way we use the house and the garden.”

“Patrycja was a pleasure to work with. Very professional and creative. I would have no hesitation recommending her. We are delighted with our extension.”

“Peter designed a new kitchen extension on our Victorian House in Dublin 8 in 2016. We found Peter to be an excellent listener to our needs as we had a tight budget. The design that Peter came up was fantastic as it gave us so much light, a bigger back yard, along with making the house feel more complete. Peter did the full set of drawings for the builder and did several site visits and made any mods that we needed as the build went on. We are a family with 3 kids and the difference the extension has made to how the house looks and feels is astonishing. I would highly recommend Peter to anyone who is considering work to their house. Thank you Peter.”

“We've recently completed a renovation project with DW Architects and our experience could not have been more positive. David really listened to our wishes and needs and took these to a whole new level creating something really special and unique for us. The design was everything we wanted and more. David was also phenomenal throughout the entire planning and build process. He was so involved at every stage and every decision - not just structural design issues but also interior design decisions. We felt so supported at all times. I would highly recommend DW Architects for anyone considering instructing an architect - one of the best decisions we ever made.”

“McCann Moore helped us to realise our dream of extending and modernising our family home throughout. They assisted us in engaging and managing professional contractors to deliver the project on our behalf, providing a turnkey service for the required budget. Pauls attention to detail is excellent, he listened to our ideas and provided his own, without which the final result would have been greatly diminished. A thoroughly excellent architectural and project management practice for all sizes of projects”

“O'keeffe Architects are a friendly and creatively motivated architectural practice. Their work is of an excellent standard which stands out as being quite unique. Each and every project that I have photographed for them as an architectural photographer has a distinctive flare that lends to the vital ingredient to produce quality images that further reinforce their design skills. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to a homeowner .”

“I took proud ownership of my new extension to my house this morning and would like to thank JEA for putting up with all my questions and changes I made throughout the project. Their patience and service is top quality and the finished product far exceeds my original ideas. I would thoroughly recommend them for any project or new build you have in mind as their expertise and knowledge is second to none and they have great contacts in the building trade. If I ever decide to build a new build or extend again onto my current house I will be using these guys.”

“We had the pleasure in working with McNevin Design on two separate projects - our current home and previous home. On both occasions we extended and renovated the entire house; and on both occasions we could not have been happier with the end result. From initial consultation to completion of the project, each stage was as seamless as possible. McNevin Design took all our requirements on board and we could not have been more impressed by the plans that were designed and the final outcome.”

“Tasked with the complete renovation of a large seaside 1960s holiday property, and with no prior experience of property renovation I found myself in need of expert advice. The house suffered from a litany of problems dating back to the original build, which needed immmediate remedy, and also required an internal reconfiguration to make it more suitable for modern living. I hired DMVF Architects to oversee the project from design and planning permission through to the completion of the building works. I worked closely with Colm Doyle of DMVF for 6 months on the project, and found his advice on every element - from structural considerations to interior design decisions - invaluable. The project was completed on time, and on budget, and far exceeded the expectations of my family for whom I oversaw the project. The core issues such as chronic damp have been cured, and the house enjoys a new lease of life as the perfect holiday home. I have no hesitation in recommending DMVF Architects, and Colm Doyle in particular.”

“We have worked with both Gareth and Seamus on separate projects. They have both been exceptionally pleasant to deal with. Skilled, knowledgeable, talented architects but above all, a couple of nice, reasonable guys. They have both provided very clear and unambiguous drawings and specifications and have managed the contractor-client relationships extremely well. The projects got finished and we all parted ways as friends - that's saying something! We would highly recommend this practice to home owners and contractors (or should we be encouraging competition?!?) equally.”
