PROJECT OVERVIEW

On the banks of the River Erne, in the heart of Enniskillen, Ireland, a brand-new passive house campus is pushing the boundaries of sustainable design and energy efficient buildings

“Another driver of design detail was the imperative to minimise impact on the historic fabric. The steel structure of the library is self-supporting and lightly tied back to the masonry walls.”

TESTIMONIAL

"As well as addressing the damp problem, and adding an apse, a spire and sacristy, it was our wish to preserve the original character of the building while enhancing it with the best of modern design and construction. We are delighted with the end product. We have an elegant and uplifting space for worship and prayer. Parishioners enjoy the interior space with its warm, serene and spiritual atmosphere, complemented by the beautiful exterior environment. Visitors are in awe of this Killybegs jewel."  Fr Colm Ó Gallchóir, Parish Priest, St.Mary's Church of the Visitation, Killybegs, Co.Donegal
