Vernon Grove

This Edwardian terrace in Rathgar, in one of Dublin’s most sought after neighbourhoods, required upgrade and transformation into a living environment capable of catering for contemporary family life.

The brief was to transform, refurbish and extend the main building volume into a formal living and sleeping zone while creating a series of new spaces to allow for family living. What evolved was a box of glass, zinc and timber which accommodated the kitchen and demi-dining space at the existing floor level. The 4 metre high glass feature serves as a habitable garden room complemented by the surrounding lush greenery of the adjoining gardens.
