      For best practice see here

      For worst practice I would suggest a walk around places like Blessington Street, Upper Gardner Street etc;

      Other projects of note on the positive side would have to include the Merrion Hotel and 14/15 Stephens Green.

      Carton Demense has irked quite a few in the conservation community whilst the City West Hotel and shed complex has really annoyed many.

      I am sure many others can add significantly to this list.

      85 and 86 St Stephens Green or Newman House would certainly be some of the finest!

      brilliant thanks
      i would also be interested to hear opinions about buildings that have new contemporary additions such as the Ark or NGI

      Might be worth having a look at the work recently done to the Architectural Archive at 45 Merrion Square.
