Courtney McDonnell Architects

From our office on Duke Street in the heart of Dublin City,  we imagine, invent, create, collaborate and execute unique, ambitious and considered  architecture that is tailored to the individual lives of our clients.  As architects, our role covers the entire construction process , from initial pre-design phase, through the planning process, to tender negotiations, contract administration and on site management during the construction stage.
