PASPARAKIS FRIEL LIMITED

Pasparakis Friel Limited is a boutique architectural practice that creates thoughtfully crafted, context‑driven homes and heritage projects across the Irish landscape. Drawing on four generations of family experience, the studio blends contemporary design with the rugged character of its sites, from the granite‑cliff house on Cruit Island to the 300‑year‑old farmhouse at Tullyard and the 1877 Glebe House in Maghery.

The firm specialises in residential architecture, sensitive extensions, and the conservation and adaptive reuse of historic buildings. Their work is distinguished by a careful dialogue with geology, vegetation and local materials – rough‑cast walls, fibre‑cement roofing and muted colour palettes that allow new structures to sit quietly within their surroundings while providing bright, social interiors for multi‑generational living.

Based in Donegal, Pasparakis Friel serves private owners, heritage bodies and rural communities who seek architecture that respects place, endures the elements and nurtures a sense of belonging. Their portfolio, captured by photographer Peter Molloy, showcases a commitment to durability, sustainability and the timeless beauty of Ireland’s coastal and agrarian settings.
