The central question at the heart of any architectural project is
'How will the building interact with the people that will use it?'.
A building may be aestheically pleasing but if, for example, its design
stultifies social interaction or proves unergonomic in its day to
day existence then it has failed in its primary aim.
We wanted to get an idea of how the Group 91 framework
plan actually impinged on people's lives, on those who
chose to live and work in the Temple Bar area. So we
talked to Justin
Callahan who lives in the award-winning Printworks
mixed-use block and to
Patricia Hurl, an artist with a studio in the Temple
Bar Gallery and Studios who has been in the area
since before the transformation.
