Featured Reviews for Architects in Dublin, Co. Dublin

DW Architects
Architects in Dublin, Co. Dublin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 November 2023
“We've recently completed a renovation project with DW Architects and our experience could not have been more positive. David really listened to our wishes and needs and took these to a whole new level creating something really special and unique for us. The design was everything we wanted and more. David was also phenomenal throughout the entire planning and build process. He was so involved at every stage and every decision - not just structural design issues but also interior design decisions. We felt so supported at all times. I would highly recommend DW Architects for anyone considering instructing an architect - one of the best decisions we ever made.”

“Eva provides a unique and really useful service. In 2 hours she gave me scaled drawings of 4 options to change the layout of the kitchen/living/dining space. As an architect she understands light and space plus the practical implications of changes.I am really excited now about taking it forward with Eva.”

“O'keeffe Architects are a friendly and creatively motivated architectural practice. Their work is of an excellent standard which stands out as being quite unique. Each and every project that I have photographed for them as an architectural photographer has a distinctive flare that lends to the vital ingredient to produce quality images that further reinforce their design skills. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to a homeowner .”

The House Architects
Architects in Dublin, Co. Dublin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 December 2016
“We worked with Josh to design and project manage an extension to our 1930s house in Dublin 7. It included demolishing our old kitchen and lean-to sheds, and building a new kitchen/dining room with a downstairs bathroom / utility room. Beforehand we visited several clients in the local area who had positive experiences with House Architects. The pricing structure was very clear. Josh was a pleasure to work with, and unflappable, which is always very reassuring. Once we had designs we were happy with, he worked to put the project out to tender and managed the relationship and the payments to the builder. This was the most valuable aspect for us. Particularly towards the end of the project, there were probably issues where we would have let the builder cut corners, but it was great to have Josh there to hold the line and ensure the project was completed to specification. We've been living with our extension for 18 months now and we're delighted with it - it's transformed the way we use the house and the garden.”
Optimise Home

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 December 2012
“Optimise Design combines wonderful, innovative and beautiful design, with top notch service. At every stage I was advised on how to optimise my budget and make the best use of my space. I got more than I hoped for - and I love my house now. It's my favourite place to be.”
DMVF Architects
Architects in Dublin, Co. Dublin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 September 2012
“Tasked with the complete renovation of a large seaside 1960s holiday property, and with no prior experience of property renovation I found myself in need of expert advice. The house suffered from a litany of problems dating back to the original build, which needed immmediate remedy, and also required an internal reconfiguration to make it more suitable for modern living. I hired DMVF Architects to oversee the project from design and planning permission through to the completion of the building works. I worked closely with Colm Doyle of DMVF for 6 months on the project, and found his advice on every element - from structural considerations to interior design decisions - invaluable. The project was completed on time, and on budget, and far exceeded the expectations of my family for whom I oversaw the project. The core issues such as chronic damp have been cured, and the house enjoys a new lease of life as the perfect holiday home. I have no hesitation in recommending DMVF Architects, and Colm Doyle in particular.”
David Cullen Architect
Architects in Dublin, Co. Dublin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2020
“We wanted to make more space in our house and make the space we had more liveable in. Although our house was quite traditional we wanted to modernise it too. We also wanted help with designing the outdoor space. David was really creative and we are absolutely thrilled with the results. He had great practical advice in relation to the kitchen and dealt effectively with any build or installation issues that arose. We had not used an architect before but found David's input to be invaluable. I would highly recommend David Cullen for his thoroughness, attention to detail, creativity and fantastastic, practical design ideas.”
Hausman Architectural Technology
Architects in Dublin, Co. Dublin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 November 2016
“David worked on our house renovation from Jan-Jul 2016. We found him to be personable, accessible, opinionated (in a good way) and committed to delivering a project that works well and is beautiful. During the design of our house, David worked through three iterations of drawings until he and we agreed a plan. David gained a good understanding of what we needed and incorporated our needs into the plans. David helped us to recruit a very good builder. During the build it was invaluable having David around to ensure building was being done in accordance with national safety standards but also to negotiate with the builder how certain work should be done e.g. David insisted on RSJs being recessed, had strong opinions on the height of the extension, and the positioning of a roof light to achieve maximum light and aesthetic appeal. David was a great help in telling us where to source materials in particular the door but also floors, the kitchen and bathroom furniture. He renovates houses all the time so if you know what you want, he can tell you where to get it. David is really interested in producing beautiful work so he's a great person to have in your corner and is always a pleasure to deal with. We recommend highly.”
McNevin Design Dublin
Architects in Dublin, Co. Dublin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 March 2021
“We had the pleasure in working with McNevin Design on two separate projects - our current home and previous home. On both occasions we extended and renovated the entire house; and on both occasions we could not have been happier with the end result. From initial consultation to completion of the project, each stage was as seamless as possible. McNevin Design took all our requirements on board and we could not have been more impressed by the plans that were designed and the final outcome.”

What does an architect do?

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.

Do I need an architectural designer?

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 Dublin architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.

    What happens after hiring an architect?

    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.

    How much does it cost to hire an architect?

    The cost of hiring an architect in Dublin can vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project, experience, reputation, and location. Architectural fees are typically structured as a percentage of the project’s total construction cost, ranging from 8% to 15%. For example, if a project has a construction cost of £500,000 and the architect’s fee is 10%, the fee would be £50,000. It’s advisable to discuss fees and payment structures with architects in Dublin during initial consultations.
