PRINCIPLE 01
Change
for Good
As whole system thinkers, we embrace a holistic approach to design. Through the lens of regenerative architecture, we design buildings and landscapes that create positive change.
We consider each building and its complete environment. We move with ease from macro (urban level) to micro (detail level) scale. We maximise the potential within each project. We consider how every component interacts and combines to create positive impact, beyond the boundaries of the site, to benefit both people and planet.
Nexus Distribution Park, Co. Dublin
Setting new benchmarks for sustainability, biodiversity, design and wellbeing to do better for a new generation of logistics occupier.
Leading change
Our practice prides itself at being at the forefront of change. We seek to accelerate the pace and scale of change by elevating industry standards, working within industry steering groups and with national legislative bodies.
Architects Declare Ireland is a network of RIAI registered architects & architectural practices committed to addressing the climate and biodiversity emergency and as members of the steering group, we aim to lead the way in aligning the Irish construction industry with its values.
As active members of the Irish Green Buildings Council (IGBC), we have undertaken a commitment to start on the path to achieve net zero carbon emissions and comply with the principles of sustainable development.
A holistic approach
We see our role as challenging the status quo of current ‘norms’ to create design solutions that build better for longer. We harness our expertise and invest in research to inform the development of an architecture that minimises environmental impact, while maximising social value.
