Maremoto and Foley Architects worked with South Dublin County Council to publish a design guide for house extensions in the County in 2025.
The guide provides useful information, including reasons to extend your home, design principles, and planning checklists for application submissions to the council.
In 2010 SDCC produced one of the first House Extension Guides in the country. The guide proved to be a success with regard improving design standards and protecting the amenity of surrounding residential dwellings, as well as being a useful tool to guide applicants and members of the public through the design and assessment process of house extensions and residential developments.
South Dublin County Council is keen to continue to protect and improve the quality of the County’s built environment, but also to encourage innovative design solutions, creativity and responses specific to subject sites.
