Most new houses in Ireland borrow poorly from the Georgian model. But there are plenty of 'Modern architects' out there. Bungalows and housing developments that borrow heavily, and generally very poorly, from the Georgian model are Ireland's predominant new house types. In a parallel universe, Ireland also has individually-designed homes that have kept up with global architectural trends. Irish architects have kept their pencils on the pulse for a number of centuries: keeping pace with the world during the classic revival, and doing Georgian to perfection. When the International Style and Modernism was changing the face of architecture worldwide, there were Irish players.
