Blackrock Transformation

House Renovation & Design, Blackrock, Co Dublin

This project involved renovating a 5200 sq. ft. house. The living room is a very large room, and it was important to achieve a cosy feel for this space. This was achieved by new fitted units, placement of furniture, lighting, layering of fabrics, rug, accessories, cushions etc… All the rooms in the property were updated and modernised. All new bathrooms were installed and new joinery work was extensively used to include a new stairs. New furniture was purchased.

Living Room

Existing Floor stained. Existing fireplace kept. New Joinery works, lighting, furniture etc…

Kitchen

The Kitchen was moved out of its current position and turned into a dining room as the kitchen was in the smallest room of the house. The new position was the renovated conservatory which was bright and had much more space. This space was transformed into a kitchen, dining and living area. This was a very tricky space to work in as there were beams coming down from the ceiling and 2 large pillars to work around. We made features out of the pillars and incorporated them into the design.

Master Bedroom

Some of the internal walls were removed and rebuilt to create a more efficient use of space. The walk-in wardrobe access was changed to give more efficient storage space to the wardrobe and to improve the layout of the entire Master Bedroom Suite.

En-suite Bathroom

The floors in this property are all concrete and meant that removing waste was difficult. The original positioning of all sanitary ware was moved and re-designed. The shower and sink were swapped which meant when you look in the door you see the vanity unit. This redesign improved the space in the bathroom.

Bedroom

A desk was built into the window. There was very little wall to put the wardrobes so panelling was used behind the bed and new wardrobes were built in at either side.  Space was left for a larger bed if and when it was required.
