Design-led architectural
practice in Ireland.
at the forefront of the residential sector.
Crawford Architecture is a design-led architectural practice working on a diverse range of projects throughout Ireland from our offices in Sligo, Cork and Dublin.
Our experienced team of architects and architectural technologists have particular experience within the residential and commercial sector. Our current workload includes projects of varying typology and scale from strategic planning and feasibility to detail design and construction.
The Schoolyard
Located in the heart of Dublin’s North Inner City, The Schoolyard is a contemporary residential development which sits on a prominent corner location between Dublin’s North Circular Road and Portland Street North. The Schoolyard completes the existing ‘Bakers Yard’ residential development to the North. The new build development comprises 61 apartments ranged over 5 – 7 floors.
Our Services
Our expertise includes architecture, fire remediation works, due diligence and project monitoring. We deliver the same level of commitment and detail to projects of each type because we understand that the different aspects of our work together form a sustainable whole.
-
We have experience across a range of sectors working for private clients to create buildings that balance function, aesthetics and sustainability. We have adopted the use of BIM on our projects to drive efficiency, collaboration and technical aspects in our work. While we generally take projects from inception and feasibility stages to handover and post-occupancy review, we also have experience taking schemes with planning permission and delivering them on site. This valuable knowledge gained from the building site then feeds back into the design stage of new projects.
-
We have gained a reputation for working primarily with existing residential buildings to inspect and survey where there may be inadequate fire separation and risk of fire spreading throughout the building. We then put together a comprehensive plan working with experienced contractors to upgrade and fit new fire protection measures throughout the building.

We have expertise in monitoring projects on site for construction quality, compliance with building regulations and compliance with the planning documents to deliver successful outcomes for the client. This is done through frequent site visits as required and desktop studies of the available drawings and specifications. This valuable knowledge gained from the building site can then feedback into the design stage of Architecture.
Ballyboggan Road
Ballyboggan Road is a landmark apartment development on an elevated site in Glasnevin, which replaces four derelict cottages.
Having previously won planning permission for the site in 2013 and extended until 2024, Crawford Architecture was asked to increase the density and improve the amenities on site and overall layout. The new build development comprises 99 apartments ranged over 4 – 5 floors.
Charlestown
Charlestown is a new neighbourhood on the Athlone Road, just outside Mullingar, located along the Royal Canal. The canal provided an opportunity to create a large linear park as the focus for the community. An important hedgerow also bisected the site, forming an historic townland boundary and from which the main boulevard through the site is aligned, linking the entrance and the canal with a green corridor.
