This was a recent project completed in The Naul for good friends of mine, Al Foran and Alison Foran.
They came to me looking for ideas on how to work around the boxed-in waste pipe on the right-hand side of the chimney breast. After discussing a few options, we decided the best solution was to create matching alcove units on both sides, giving the room a clean, balanced and symmetrical finish.
We used white units from The Pannelling Centre to provide plenty of extra storage, along with 2x2 timber framing and plasterboard to create the shelving and framework before finishing everything with plaster. The units were then painted in Farrow & Ball White, which really brightens the space and gives it a timeless look.
If you're thinking about adding a feature wall, media unit or bespoke alcove storage to your home and would like some ideas or advice, send me a DM today. We'd be delighted to help bring your vision to life.

A recent feature wall we completed in Portmarnock.

The client came to me with an idea of what they were looking for, and together we designed this custom feature wall to suit the space perfectly.

The base units were bought in The Panelling Centre, finished with Alderley Cashmere shaker doors. LED strip lighting was fitted into the floating shelves to add a warm modern finish. The client supplied the fire, which was kept as an open 3-sided feature.

The unit frame was built using 3x2 timber and finished in MDF, before being painted in Elephant’s Breath by Farrow & Ball.

I'm really happy with how this one turned out 👌

Today we fitted a set of built-in wardrobes in Portmarnock. The client needed extra storage in their hallway for coats, runners, and everyday household items.
We used a combination of a 900mm unit and a 500mm unit to create a full-width, practical storage solution that fits the space perfectly.
A simple upgrade, but it makes a huge difference in keeping everything tidy and organised.

I have had a lot of enquiries lately about garden walls and fences, so I wanted to share some previous work.
In these projects, the clients were looking to either increase the height of existing walls or give them a fresh new look with a timber finish.
I used 2x1 and 3x1 timbers, stained to achieve a cedar-style finish that’s both modern and low maintenance.
It’s a simple upgrade that completely transforms a plain block wall or tired old fence into something much more stylish and eye-catching.

A recent feature wall was completed in Clarehall.
We built a false chimney breast using 3x2 timbers, then finished it with warm oak acoustic panels to create a clean, modern look while adding a cosy feel to the sitting room.
We finished the wall with simple IKEA shelves and an electric fire, which really tied the whole feature together.
Sometimes, a simple, affordable upgrade like this can completely transform a blank wall and make your living space feel warmer and more stylish.

I am really happy with how this hall, stairs, and landing pannelling project turned out. The client wanted floor to ceiling pannelling to refresh the space without making it look bulky. To achieve that clean, elegant style, we used a 30mm beading for the box detail and a slightly larger 40mm dado rail, giving definition while keeping everything sleek and balanced.
The finish is Skimming Stone by Farrow & Ball, which works beautifully with the natural light and really enhances the overall look of the space. This type of pannelling is perfect for transforming areas like hallways and staircases, adding character while keeping a modern, timeless feel.

Some lovely box pannelling I recently completed. This was a little different from the usual style of panelling I do. The client wanted smaller boxes and larger spacing between the pannels, so I adjusted the gaps between the pannels to 200mm instead of the standard 100mm, which really changed the overall feel of the design. We finished it off with a slim 30mm dado rail, which adds an elegant feel without overpowering the wall. The paint is black and blue from colour trend. I'm really happy with how this turned out, a clean, neat finish that transforms the whole area. If you're thinking about upgrading with something a little more bespoke, feel free to dm for a free quote.

Before Christmas, we completed a really exciting project in Portmarnock! The client came to us with a vision, and together, we designed this stunning feature wall.
The TV unit was built using 3x2 timbers, then covered with MDF and wrapped in warm oak acoustic panelling for a sleek, modern look. Led lights were also fitted around the TV. The open space on the left was underutilized, so we added built-in wall units at the bottom and floating shelves with spotlights above. To tie it all together, we used matching acoustic panels at the back of the shelves.
The transformation was incredible, and here are some photos showing the project from start to finish.

This is a panelling project in Malahide that I recently completed The client gave me the freedom to design the layout, and through a combination of her input and my own ideas, we created a spacious, modern finish that makes full use of the available space. I was particularly happy with how the large panels on the stairwell and the high ceilings turned out. This style of panelling has become increasingly popular in recent years, with clients looking to maximise both space and impact. The project was finished using slaked lime paint, which beautifully brightens the area and adds depth to the overall look.
