Carton LeVere Studio House
Donegal, Eire
When design practice Antoin MacGabhann Architects was approached to design a new house and studio in rural Donegal, the clients were uncertain whether they would live in the house permanently or use it occassionally as a holiday retreat.
Moreover, the building was to be sited in a rural setting which made the most of its views without having a negative impact on the environment itself. The completed building has proved such a success that it has won the 'best building in the landscape' award from the Royal Institute of Architects in Ireland (RIAI)
