Coughlan DeKeyser Architects were engaged as the lead consultant to develop a design for a new marina facilities development to support the existing marina moorings. The development is to include a gym building for use by Monkstown rowing club along with a larger two storey marina building including uses such as public restaurant/café, offices, convenience store, chandlery, lounge training area and ancillary storage changing rooms etc.
The design proposed provides a contemporary aesthetic with striking black standing seam metal roof and black brick walls. The materials selected create a quality palette of textures and with the added nature habitat and soft landscaping aim to provide a public realm of high quality.
