The 1774 pavillion. 3/3 Some portrait and in-use shots, this time. Including one (scroll to the end) that feels Christmassy enough, with its star-shaped perforations in the Corten, to sign off on and wish you all a very Merry Christmas from all of us at Studio idir. 🌟 🎄 🌟 Fabricated by Fabrite Structural Engineers Eamson Fabulous photos by @joelavertyphotography Client : the wonderful @friends_school_lisburn #pavillion #cortensteel #corten #outdoorlearning #outdoorlearningenvironment #performancespace #irisharchitecture #smallprojects #dezeen #ajsmallprojects #sculpturalform #rustymetal #tesselation

Ballyhackamore Extension. Colonnaded brick piers in @petersentegl Kolumba that make a monument of the domestic kitchen; a stage for everyday life; an agora for the modern home. Detail shots to follow in next post.

House in the woods : external shots The external appearance of the house, with its timber frame construction fully clad in cedar shingles that are gracefully weathering to grey, blends in with its wooded surrounds, almost as if it has always been there. Two vernacular forms, one for living, one for sleeping, sit at an angle to one another, connected by a glazed entrance link. There is an inherent softness to the house’s natural materials, neutral tones and rounded and non-rectilinear edges. Concrete floors by @remarkablepolished inside and out tie the spaces together, while carefully-placed windows frame views. 📷 @donalmccann_photo Built by @buildingkudos Landscape by @sweeneylandscapedesign and @pmc_landscaping Bird sculptures by @ronan.halpin #houseinthewoods #timbershingles #irisharchitects #irishhouses #ageinggracefully #shinglestyle #shinglestylearchitecture #rsua #ulsterarchitecture #hideaway #bolthole

Second in our series of studio diaries is @beth__schmidt who has compiled some snippets from her working days this month, into this clever little reel! Suffice to say she’s been kept busy, from surveys to site visits, hand sketches to 3D renders, and everything in between, taking it all in her stride. Check out her beautiful drawings in the last post. Thanks Beth! #lifeofanarchitect #partoneplacement #studioidir #architecturestudents #architecturestudio

Elevations for a recently submitted Planning Application in Kings Road Conservation Area. Two-story side extension and internal alterations to add a kitchen/dining/living space and master suite to a handsome arts and crafts dwelling. We’ve been talking in our team lately about making drawings of our projects that look like artworks in their own right… and Part 1 Beth @beth__schmidt couldn’t have done a better job of that. These quick studies allow us to worth through different options for materials and openings with our clients, and also in this case demonstrate how screened from the road by mature trees this extension will actually be. Swipe to last image to see a beautiful old drawing of the original house, from the rear, by T McC Johnston Architect. Where we are adding expansive glazing, was always glazed. Want to see more of this project? We’ll share some photorealistic renders later this week 💫 #conservationarea #kingsroad #belfastarchitecture #artsandcraftsmovement #houseextension

A recent project, designed and delivered alongside @studioidir . Clean lines, thoughtful materials, and details shaped around how our client lives. If you’re considering reworking your home, we’d love to talk. • 📸 @brandy_zhu_ • #Host #interiordesign #kitchen #design #homeinteriors

RSUA WOMEN IN ARCHITECTURE NI Have you checked out the new @womeninarchitecture_rsua account? Aisling enjoyed guest hosting last week, sharing a bit about Studio idir, what we’re working on at the moment, some business stats and how we’re finding our new 4 day week [spoiler alert : GREAT!] among other things. Go and give the account a follow for more guest hosting, including the lovely @janelarmour_architect , all interspersed with lots of interesting facts and stats! #womeninarchitecture #lifeofanarchitect #womeninbusiness #irisharchitecture #belfastarchitects

32 illustrated proposals for a town Studio idir + Starling Start were commissioned by Mid Ulster District Council to lead the Cookstown Place Shaping Plan, translating community ideas into a set of tangible, testable possibilities. From the research and engagement process, 32 proposals emerged, each reflecting a distinct opportunity for Cookstown’s future. Rather than impose a hierarchy, we designed each idea to stand on its own merit. Working with Studio idir’s Hannah and Emma, every proposal was brought to life through a series of illustrations, creating a visual language that can be shared across ages and audiences, and used as a tool for discussion. Can you spot anywhere you recognise? @midulstercouncil @starlingstart @studioidir #placeshaping #placeplans #playfulengagement #irishtowns #midulster

Our pavilion at @friends_school_lisburn has been shortlisted for the @riba regional awards and also the reinvented RSUA Awards, alongside excellent buildings by our talented friends and colleagues. Whoop! To celebrate, here are a few extra shots by the brilliant @joelavertyphotography of a little outdoor performance space, born out of true collaboration, that brings us and the school so much joy. @architecturenorthernireland #cortensteel #pavilion #architectureawards #outdoorlearning #irisharchitecture

THE BARREL Our client @intumodular_ wanted to create a luxury glamping pod, for vineyards and distilleries, that was shaped like a barrel and could be split into sections and transported anywhere in the world. A LOT of constraints that led to some interesting, technical, collaborative design conversations with our client, engineer and @setantaconstruction who are building the pods. Which layout would YOU prefer to sip your whiskey from? Bed centred in the middle, or off to one side? #glampingdesign #glampingpod #barrelpod #glampingexperience #glampingarchitecture

Studio idir is delighted to again support @riaionline Simon Open Door this year. Bookings opened today for consultations from@13 -19 April. If you have a project, or even an idea, you’d like to discuss, you can book a consultation with Aisling, Katie and many other architects across Ireland, to take place (in our case online), in exchange for a donation to the Simon Community. No idea too crazy, no place too far! We’re happy to hear from you and talk through possibilities. #simonopendoor #architectadvice #askanarchitect #irisharchitects #newproject
