0 A contemporary practice grounded in the craft of building and the creation of joyful, well-made places. Founded in 2020, OC+C is a Dublin-based architecture studio defined by a pragmatic approach to the built environment. We see the reuse of existing structures as the most effective form of sustainability, and approach each project by looking closely at what can be retained, repaired, and extended.

Our work spans adaptive reuse and new construction, carried out with the same discipline and care. We focus on making buildings that are robust, well-resolved, and technically sound - ensuring they are as durable as they are considered in their impact. We create beautifully crafted, joyful places that are deeply rooted in their context.

Our process balances professional project delivery with a tactile approach to materials and detail, producing spaces that are functional, durable, and a pleasure to inhabit.
