See Inside This Recently Renovated 1920s South Dublin Home

The period between the wars – from approximately 1920 through the 1930s – witnessed the birth of a multitude of architectural styles, some of which shared a number of design elements. The “Minimal Traditional” style emerged around 1925 and unlike its showy counterparts, ushered in the compact and simple family home, featuring local craftsmanship.

It is this simplicity and craftsmanship that Karen Brownlee Architects sought to emulate when taking on the renovation of this house. One of three mid-1920s detached two-storey houses in a south county Dublin suburb, all different but sharing a common design language, it was designed in 1927 by WM Mitchell & Sons, architects for Anglo-Irish landowner Colonel King-Harman.

A spindle-back custom-made bench was designed for the space and made by Watte Woodwork. The three-legged stool is from Stable of Ireland.
