However the library became outdated, in need of upgrading and became too small to deal with the collection of resources available to the community for reference or borrowing. After much consideration the existing building was demolished and rebuilt, doubling the size of the original library. A complete rebuild was deemed quicker, less disruptive, economic and a better environmentally sustainable solution. Ballyroan Parish Centre, Dublin Box Architecture  photo : Paul Tierney Ballyroan Parish Centre - 23 Oct 2012 The existing church was designed in the late 1960s.

This is a project that has rescued an important example of mid-century modernism and answers questions about how best and most economically we can re-use under-performing and outmoded structures, rather than building from scratch.

Mount Melleray, County Waterford, southeast Ireland dhbArchitects  photograph : Philip Lauterbach Mount Melleray - 17 Aug 2011 Mount Melleray is a functioning monastery of Cistercian monks which forms part of the Irish national consciousness due to its historical and literary associations . This project required the reordering of part of the monastery to provide a new accommodation wing for the monks. Until the advent of these new facilities, the monks, many of whom are elderly, lived scattered throughout the sprawling complex of mainly early 19th century buildings, with little or no amenities or modern services.
