Little Lizard Gaming
Dublin 11
The project involved a complete fitout in an existing office block for Minecraft online gaming company, Little Lizard. The brief included the provision of 20 recording booths, open plan offices, breakout zones and meeting rooms. The aim was to create playful spaces that reflected the company's image.
Bright colours and textured materiality flow throughout the office scheme, adopting various elements of the Minecraft game with panelled 3D walls and pixelated graphics.

This is a meeting room created by Irish craftsmen for the management council of the GAA, accommodating its 24 members where each can see each other in turn and is the venue for its monthly meetings together with ancillary and associated meetings of the GAA.
Auditorium for GAA
Croke Park Stadium, Dublin
This is an €8 million development for the GAA that contains 5 no. handball courts together with a community facility, associated offices and ancillary facilities. The small building footprint is sensitively designed to accommodate the courts on a multi-floor level. The building expresses the volumetric space of the handball courts in a manner that creates an architectural attention to the relief of the elevational treatments. The building used a BMS and included rainwater harvesting, passive cooling, heating to minimise the carbon footprint to a negative level.
