Profile
- The practice designs cultural, infrastructural and residential work in Ireland and elsewhere. The practice has been extensively published in places such as A+U, the AR, Casabella, AMAG and has been exhibited in the Venice Biennale. Both partners research and write critically about architecture and a book authored by the practice about the Danish architect Kay Fisker has been published by Lund Humphries. The practice has been voted the AR Peter Davey Award winners 2019, the BD Young Architects of the Year 2018, and has been twice awarded the AAI Downes Medal. Both partners value teaching as a fundamental part of their practice. Andrew has been a guest Professor in Aarhus, and is currently Professor in the Kingston School of Art, London. Colm directs the M.Arch programme in Queens University Belfast. The practice runs a guest studio in the Academia di Architetturra in Mendrisio where Andrew is a Guest Professor.
Recent projects include; Arklow WasteWater Treatment Plant
Arklow Wastewater Treatment Plant is the first time an architect has been a part of the design team for such a building. Here, a small architecture practice won an invited competition and worked alongside the engineers to instrumentally direct and shape the plant’s design. Arklow has been without wastewater treatment for its entire history. Its badly polluted river and sea act to prevent the town’s ability to grow, and badly impacts ecologies and the amenity value of these water bodies. Previous attempts to build a plant had failed repeatedly, as previous designs did not meet planning approval on sensitive sites. The Architectural Association of Ireland recently awarded the plant its highest honour, the Downes Medal, for ‘outstanding architectural merit’.
The current team is Colm Moore, Andrew Clancy, Tobias Beale, Camilla Crafa, Piera Bedin, Joe Franklin and Larissa Lopes.
