U-values

Brief:

The brief for this project was to construct a new extension to an existing community building in the central square of the village of Kilcommon which would enhance the village, provide much needed community facilities that would help promote tourism and be a natural hub for the various nature walks in the vicinity.

Description:

The proposal was to provide a strong architectural insertion into the village and one that promoted sustainability and natural materials as much as possible. A lot of the work was also to design nice new public spaces for people to be in and enjoy and not just a large parking area in the center of the village. Lots glass was incorporated into the front of the facility to act as window to the incredible landscapes of the area such as the historic mountain “Mathair Slieve”.
