Project Location: Residential apartment near Croke Park, Dublin
Project Timeline: Designed and fabricated over one week, fitted in a single day
Project Scope: Bespoke storage unit built to maximise space in a compact hallway and living area, combining open shelving and closed cabinetry
Design Style: Minimalist and modern, finished in a satin spray-painted white with subtle detailing
Unique Features: Full-height unit with push-to-open doors, and concealed storage, all tailored to fit a narrow recessed space
Client Goals: To eliminate hallway clutter by creating smart, stylish storage that blended in with the apartment’s existing layout and didn’t obstruct movement
Design Process: We started with an on-site consultation to measure the alcove and understand the client’s day-to-day storage needs. A custom layout was visualised in CAD and refined with the client before we moved to production.
Initial Consultation: The client needed storage for daily essentials, and household items without sacrificing floor space or natural light. Discretion was key, as the unit sits directly across from the apartment entrance.
Design Development: We designed a streamlined unit that followed the shape of the wall with no protrusions. Internal dividers were planned to accommodate varied storage uses, while the external finish was matched to existing joinery to create a cohesive look.
Materials and Finishes:
Spray-painted MDF in off-white satin finish
Adjustable internal shelving
Push-to-open doors with soft-close hinges
Clean shadow-gap detailing at the base and sides
Key Design Features:
Built-in look with a shadow gap and no visible hardware
Fully fitted to awkward alcove dimensions
Designed to make maximum use of vertical space
This custom storage solution in Dublin near Croke Park combines form and function in a tight footprint, perfect for apartment living where every centimetre counts.
