The Irish Times

Architects Paul Kelly and Dermot Boyd and Dermot's brother Shane, got together in late 19995 to purchase a large shed in a short lane off Cambridge Road, Rathmines. It cost them what seemed at the time an inordinate amount of money, 66,000. The two architects work together in The Studio, on Upper Baggot Street, a practice that also includes Gary Lysaght, Michelle Fagan and Peter Cody. Kelly and Boyd were determined to design their own living spaces. Five years later, they are all delighted with the radical statement they have made in what is quite a conventional area.
