extension in b lackrock, cork magee creedon kearns archi tects 2009

Expansion of the interior into the exterior constitutes the concept of this addition to a 1830s Victorian house. The mass masonry wall of the original is replaced with a contem-porary wood and glass screen. A bay window maximizes the minimal intervention, courtesy of an internal cill acting as a bench to the table. Large opes form internal to external seats, garnering the desired link to the outside terrace/garden space

susta inable resort maldives semester two 2010 Berkeley USA

At just two metres above sea level, by current pre-dictions, the Maldives (30 million year old atoll formations in the Indian Ocean) are set to disappear by 2100.Tasked with designing a resort which responds to this fate, this proposal envisages a titanium wall/levee encircling an untouched atoll, with a resort embedded in it. Vertical fabrication of the mesh wall reacts to sea level rise while low current under water has-tens coral production, providing a break-water for the wall.

kayak c lub for dubl in semester one 2010/11 UCD

Through the lens of Dun Laoghaire on Dublin’s Southside, this studio asked students to explore the possibili-ties of expanding Dublin’s rapport with the sea, engaging the populace with the resource that grounds their city. The kayak club sets about reactivating the sea as popular leisure point. Cut out of 1960s infill, the schemes geometry is generated from the esplanade wall, a distinctive local landmark. The architecture is inspired by the nature of esplanade wall, a molded sculpture of cast in situ concrete. Envisaged as a nodal point, the space acts as an intermedi-ary between land and sea, a boat hall, a changing area, a club room, a café, a market space, a viewing point, a work-shop and store.

nat ional chi ldrens hospi ta l , dubl in semester two, masters thesis project 2010/11 UCD

An Irish national children’s hospital is proposed to amalgamate the three current children’s hospitals into one 120,000 sqm super hospital. location: the Mater hospital site on Dublins north side. proposal: a 16 storey structure, placed to the south side of the dense Mater hospital site. This thesis reimagines the current proposal, relocat-ing the structure to the adjunct Mountjoy prison site, soon to be vacated due to inhumane conditions. In accord with Ros-sian thought, the thesis advocates the retention and re-imag-ination of the culturally significant Victorian prison structure. An institutional grain is adopted, reinterpreting the Victorian courtyard typology of the original Mater hospital.

“The Mater Hospital and Mountjoy prison constitute insti-tutional voids in the stratum of Dublin city. Through a recon-sideration of the Victorian prison and hospital typologies, a contemporary institution weaves into the vacated Mountjoy site, inverting the urban impasse into a mesh of institutional, public space in the city.” m.a.d.
