168 pages, Japanese/English

This special feature on residential architecture in Ireland presents 20 houses designed by six architects: Clancy Moore, Steve Larkin, Ryan W. Kennihan, TAKA architects, David Leech, and t o b Architect. Together these Irish architects demonstrate a broad spectrum of materialities and approaches while also remaining true to their cultural and contextual roots. Besides many more traditional homes, this overview expands the house typology to include a farmhouse, warehouse conversion, conservatory room, park gate lodge, and writers room. From reuse to new building and from urban to countryside, this selection of houses embodies the imagination of Irish architecture today.
