If any sections get too extensive, they should be split into new pages, with a summary section on this page. zoney &#09827; talk 15:29, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Come on!
Ok its been 4 days since anything has been done and theres only really 3/4 days to go, so come on! Just a little bit more each! CGorman 20:17, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately I have been rather busier than expected. I would like to do some fact-checking/referencing at my Uni library - but the best Irish architecture books are in "special collections" - I have to go there during the day, and actually bring paper (no photocopying or withdrawal of these books allowed - study room only). Hopefully I'll get a chance to do this before Friday. zoney &#09827; talk 22:43, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)


 * I hope to do more next week. Filiocht 08:45, Nov 25, 2004 (UTC)

NOTABLE ARCHITECTS MUST BE NOTABLE FOR THEIR CULTURAL CONTRIBUTION- ANYTHING ELSE WILL BE REMOVED —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.73.141.166 (talk) 12:57, 9 October 2007 (UTC) Criteria -An AAI, RIAI or similiar pretigous award or commendation —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.2.123.45 (talk) 18:28, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Will begin to add references - practices will only be retanied on the list if they have recieved an RIAI, AAI or similiar international award —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.83.65.85 (talk) 14:55, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

I think the criteria should be RIAI/AAI medal (not just an award) or international equivalent. e.g. shortlisting for Stirling proze should count whereas an RIAI award for best building under €250,000 in Southern Region should not. Winning prestigious international Design competitions should count.

By those criteria of the current crop O'Donnell & Tuomey, Grafton, Heneghan Peng should be in Tom de Paor not for example. Not sure about Bucholz McEvoy they did make the Phaidon Atlas twice. the list over should be cut to

* Mc Cullough Mulvin http://www.mcculloughmulvin.com/ * O'Donnell and Tuomey http://www.odonnell-tuomey.ie/ * Heneghan Peng http://www.hparc.com/ * Grafton http://www.graftonarchitects.ie/ * Scott Tallon Walker http://www.stw.ie/ * Buchholz Mc Evoy http://www.bmcea.com/ * de Blacam & Meagher http://www.deblacamandmeagher.com/ * Murray Ó Laoire http://www.murrayolaoire.com/

I think more could be added though particularly if you take modern to cover the whole modern movement and beyond or should it just be 'Contemporary'? It would be useful to get guidance from other architecture sites. I've put a request at WikiProject Architecture/Architecture Forum.

For Info the Irish Practices in the Phaidon Atlas are; Bucholz McEvoy, deBlacam and Meagher, Grafton, O'Donnell & Tuomey, Scott Tallon & Walker (there are also buildings in Ireland by Gumuchdijian Associates, Erik Van Egeraat, ABK architects and Benson & Forsyth but I'd not consider these Irish practices with the possible exception of ABK who have an office in Dublin) -- Gramscis cousinTalkStalk 16:21, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Notable modern Irish architects
This section has become a simple directory of practices. There seems to be no criteria for inclusion and many just give links to practice websites. In the absence of any criteria I propose it would be better to delete the entire list. -- Gramscis cousin (talk) 11:38, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

The same applies to the list of notable buildings I feel quite a number should be removed. -- Gramscis cousinTalkStalk 15:54, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

"Georgian architecture" - when?
When, in Ireland, did "Georgian" architecture actually begin? Yes, I'm aware the George crowd started on the English throne in 1714. However, this article gives the impression that "Georgian" architecture started by the 1780s but is vague: "Gandon came to Ireland in 1781.... By this time the palladian style had evolved further, and the strict rules of mathematical ratio and axis dictated by Palladio had been all but abandoned, this subsequent evolution is generally referred to as Georgian architecture." The article on Georgian Dublin and Henrietta Street both say "Georgian" architecture began in 1714. I'm just wondering are editors just taking the 1714 date and imposing it on Ireland, even though that date may not apply here. What I'm trying to ascertain is 1) what, if anything, was architecturally distinctive about "Georgian" architecture and 2) did it reach Ireland later/did Palladian architecture last longer here? If "Georgian" architecture is simply a new name for existing styles with a few local twists, it does seem very anglocentric for Irish people to rename that style after an English monarch, as if the style itself was English. 188.141.10.11 (talk) 01:31, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
