Absolutely delighted that Sam’s Cottage has been selected as a finalist for the 2026 Irish Georgian Society Architectural Conservation Awards.

To be shortlisted among some of the very best conservation projects across Ireland is a huge honour.

A very special project, and one I’m incredibly proud to see recognised in this way.

A huge thank you to my wonderful clients for trusting the vision, and to everyone who worked so carefully to help bring Sam’s Cottage back to life!

One of my bespoke residential designs in Galway.

A home where architecture and landscape are designed together — natural materials, strong contemporary forms and layered planting creating one complete composition.

For me, that connection between building and landscape is the essence of every project.

A transformation of a traditional Irish bungalow into a contemporary pavilion dwelling.

Existing masonry elements are retained and reinterpreted to anchor the building within the landscape, while new interventions introduce openness, light and framed views across the site to spectacular sea views.

Old structure.
