Featured Reviews for Architects in Carlow, Co. Carlow

Cobelis Design Studio
Architects in Carlow, Co. Carlow
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 April 2026
“Before we reached out to Eleanor we were a little unsure about what we could achieve with our budget, and where to start. Eleanor had come highly recommended and we really liked the sound of her approach; creating something tailored to our lives, our style, and the space we have available. The whole process with Eleanor was just thrilling, it was magic to see her turn our dreams into achievable, concrete plans. She is a master of finding simple yet elegant solutions, and in spite of space and budgetary constraints, we didn't end up feeling like we were compromising on anything. We are so excited to get started on the building this summer.”
O'Flynn Architects
Architects in Carlow, Co. Carlow
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 July 2020
“We used O'Flynn Architects throughout our new build project in Kildare. Working closely with them for planning permission, tender and build phases. For the entire project, I found Padraigh and Leona great to deal with. Always very helpful, professional and personable. We had a good idea of what we wanted in our new house and Padraigh worked with us closely to achieve that, utilizing the space without blowing our budget. After being in the house over a year now, we are still so happy with everything and would strongly recommend Padraigh, Leona and team.”
ABA Architects
Architects in Carlow, Co. Carlow
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 November 2016
“We recently appointed ABA Architects to transform a two bedroom cottage in complete need of a rebuild. Anthony and his team listened to what we wanted to achieve. The plans ABA came back with were more then we hoped for. We now have a beautiful two bedroomed cottage which is filled with open space , light wraps around the cottage, due to the high ceilings and additional windows. The exterior of the cottage has remained in tact and still has its beautiful brickwork. But wow, what a surprise when the cottage door is opened. I could to recommend ABA highly enough.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
An architect is a professional who designs and creates building plans, ensuring the building is functional, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. They collaborate with clients to understand their needs and create designs that meet their requirements. Architects also consider building codes, regulations, and sustainability principles in their designs. They may oversee the construction process to ensure it aligns with the design intent.
If you are looking at a house extension or building a new home from scratch, chances are you are going to need the help of a residential architect. They have extensive knowledge of architectural design, construction methods and building materials, not to mention a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light and flow within a property. Architects will also be far more capable of seeing the bigger picture – carefully balancing aesthetic appeal with structural safety. With their local knowledge, your Carlow architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.

    After choosing a residential architect, you will usually start with a consultation to discuss the project. Preferably at your property or building site where the work will be done. Give as clear a picture as possible of the kind of home you are trying to create to your architects. Chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and feedback, together with any very specific requirements you might have. They will explain their process to you alongside any other on-site visits up to and including the build stage, depending on whether they will be involved at that stage. From there they will produce the designs and plans required for your project.
