dePaor is an architectural practice based in Ireland. Established in 1991, the practice seeks for design to communicate spatially and in detail regardless of programme or location. Underpinned by a conviction in the creative design process and international in its outlook, the work illustrates a concern with perception, construction and tradition. Innovative, strategically small and without specialisation, the practice is interested in architectural design across the scales and from first principles. With a concern for environmental, social and economic sustainability, the work is informed by sensitivity to context, the material experience of construction and light.
