New "one off" passive-designed house in Brittas Bay, County Wicklow.

This project involved the building of a new modern rural passive designed house. The ground floor maximises solar gain by positioning each window in a location specific to its requirements. The open-plan kitchen and living areas are located at the southerly aspect. The attic level is designed to allow for future expansion to include for two bedrooms with a mezzanine level above the open-plan space below. There is an external car port connected to the main entrance by a covered pergola.
