Planning permission has been granted for three sustainably designed eco tourist cabins in Mountshannon, Co. Clare, on the shore of Lough Derg.

The project forms part of a wider low-impact tourism development designed around landscape integration, reduced environmental impact and long-term sustainability. The cabins are raised on screw foundations to limit the impact on the site and use timber and natural materials throughout as part of the overall sustainable design approach.

Careful consideration has been given to solar orientation, privacy, prevailing winds and the relationship between the cabins and the surrounding landscape.

We’ve recently completed this house in Kildangan, near Puckane in Co. Tipperary, and have put together a walkthrough video of the finished interior.

The house combines a reinterpretation of traditional rural form with a considered low-energy approach. Openings are carefully arranged to support passive solar gain, with reduced glazing on the north-facing elevation and larger areas oriented west to capture afternoon light and views across the garden and surrounding countryside.

The house is constructed using a timber frame system with high levels of insulation, airtight construction and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. Heating is provided by an air-to-water heat pump with underfloor heating throughout

We’ve completed a Passive House on Ireland’s Atlantic Coast in County Clare.

This low-energy coastal home was designed in line with Passive House principles, combining airtight construction (below 0.6 ACH), mechanical ventilation with heat recovery and a high-performance thermal envelope to deliver stable comfort in an exposed Atlantic setting.

South-facing glazing maximises passive solar gain while careful detailing ensures long-term energy performance.

Construction is now underway on our stone cottage renovation and extension on the Irish coast, Co. Galway. The project combines an full retrofit of the existing cottage with a contemporary extension that will open the home to sweeping coastal views. The public-facing elevation will retain its traditional character, while the new extension will deliver generous living spaces and high levels of energy efficiency.
