The existing car park, visible from the Diamond in Donegal Town, was in need of upgrade to make the most of its riverside/ town centre location. It lacked a defined edge to the river, suitable lighting, and a proper walkway to the Pier and the Abbey ruins beyond. The materials for the new car park surface and the new footpath along the waters’ edge match into the existing, so that the joins between new and old are barely visible.

Mike, Co. Donegal and HertfordshireThis was our first self-build and we were impressed by the helpful advice we received from the initial planning through to completion of the build. Roci was careful to warn us of the financial implications of any decisions which helped to keep us within our budget. We wanted a modern innovative design which was economical to heat and maintain and we have been delighted with the result. The design also incorporated features which maximize the particular strengths of our unusual site. We also required the renovation of an old mill and the architectural advice received was also invaluable both in obtaining planning consent and enabling us to achieve our objectives whilst staying within our budget. Overall we have been delighted with the project and remain grateful for the quality of the advice and communication which we received from the architect which enable us to enjoy the experience from start to completion.
Jonathan and Barbara, Co. FermanaghWith regards to the project of renovating and building an extension to our family home, the advice and input from Mr. Allan was excellent regarding involvement with design options and also liaising with Building Control and the Contractor.
