Parklands Extension Maynooth, Co. Kildare

This project saw us working with a young family, looking to design and build an extension to their semi-detached house. Located in a quiet residential area, the extension makes the most of the natural light toward the rear of the property and from the skylight, making the room bright and airy. The open-plan living space creates plenty of room for family life. The addition of the porch to the property also adds to its presence.
