Similarly to understand the site, the neighbourhood and explain to you how best to move forward.

Our Mission Statement
Our belief in embracing sustainability, implies responsibilities and new skills sets for architecture, engineering, town planning, and the related professions, and ultimately in community culture. Consciousness is growing in Ireland and around the world – we are coming-round to demanding sustainability in our built environment, and acknowledging that we, as consultants, consumers and producers must all contribute some effort in realising this.
Client View
Planning Workshop have represented our portfolio over the last 4 years, both in dealing with planning issues with County Councils (portfolio includes 42 hectares of zoned lands), and in designing a total remodelling and extension of a 200 year old town centre house. They have also acted as advising planning consultants on tricky right of way issues in the High Court. On all accounts, he (Declan), has been excellent to deal with and to represent our interests, and we will continue to seek his advice and input in the future. – Patrick & Christiane Coen-Leahy, Limerick
