UCD Architecture Project: The Metals

Final-year architecture students from UCD School of Architecture have generated a series of design projects connected by The Metals. These range from artists’ studios to a local recycling centre on the fringes of the railway line, a Camphill Community garden scheme and a co-housing project on sites in the gardens of existing houses backing on to The Metals, a project for modular emergency housing on the edge of Dalkey Quarry, and two projects on the harbour, a proposal for a public space on Carlisle Pier and a new harbourmaster’s office beside the Irish Lights. Aspects of these seven diverse and speculative proposals may be viewed until Open House Dublin 2017 which takes place from 13-15 October.
