About Us

Tierney Haines Architects (RIAI Chartered practice) was established in 2004 and having worked in the UK and France is now well established in Dublin, with a variety of jobs across Ireland. Work varies from new houses, to extensions and renovations of protected structures. Our approach is to make the most of a building's site and aspect through a careful analysis of landscape. We consider the brief to be a creative discussion with a Client. Additionally we encourage the full participation of Clients in the design process. We aim to make buildings that speak of their time and place, contemporary buildings.
