"So many moves in a small project" says commenter
In this week's comments update, readers are discussing a compact infill home in Dublin with red brickwork and perforated metal panels, completed by Irish architecture studio Gró Works.
Located on Dublin's southern perimeter, the home was designed to reflect both the nearby Victorian redbrick terraces and the more "utilitarian" quality of the backstreet it overlooks.

"This won't be utilitarian enough for the functionalists"Â
Several commenters were won over by the industrial feel of the design. D Bannon called the project "a striking structure and a beautifully designed home".
"Beautiful project, congratulations to all involved," echoed Gary Tynan. Commenter Tony M was also a fan of the project, writing "I like this building, in particular, the visible roof beams". However, JB warned that "this won't be utilitarian enough for the functionalists". They continued: "this architect will have their modernist ticket revoked if they don't smarten up and strip back".
Meanwhile, for JZ, there was too much going on: "so many moves in a small project. I appreciate each one separately but all added up, I think they reached a tipping point".
