These architects are so used to sucking each others ballbags that they have lost all touch with reality and what people find beautiful.  You only have to look at how Bannon fawns over some shipping container extension or block of boring steel to make do as a minimalist kitchen counter to see how out out of touch they are. 

I saw him thinking this plank of wood with holes like swiss cheese in it was some sort of 'genius' concept because the light shone through it and make shadows on the wall.

Some of these ''award'' houses I would bulldoze down and start again if I was some rich ****.   Wee Daniel O'Donnell sold his Bannon redesigned gaff a few months after completion. 

Why is your view of architecture better then his view? It's subjective so you claiming he hasn't a clue makes you equally as arrogant as he is.

Where did I say he hasn't a clue?

I said his taste is crap.  You dont need to be qualified in architecture to be allowed say that despite what that bellend Fingers says.  Its  the public who decide if its nice or not, not pretentious architects who think they are abstract artists. How can someone be ''qualified'' in deciding what is beautiful?LOL

Its ordinary ''unqualified'' people who have money that give these architects instructions on what they want and have to live with the design. Thaey are the boss.  Not the architect.  The architect has some poetic licence to work with but they are merely employees. So such and such a couple pay Bannon to design them something that THEY like where as Bannon comes back with his own ideas and tells them no this is what you should like.  They say no and he still tries to bully them into his designs and taste in decor when they don't want it and are paying for it.

EhConfused

Think you are defeating your own claim there.

I am certainly within my rights to criticise his perception of what beautiful buildings look like. 
That's a totally different matter to saying he doesn't know how to design houses.

I've never seen shipping container like architecture in any other country bar EIRE

In Santry last night pumping over 600k into a gaff that would prob be listed for 450. The couple had an attachment to the house and didn’t want to move/sell etc but what a genius Bannon is. Creating their dream home for over 600k without costing in the garden room and landscaping Clap

*the couples budget at the start was 400k LOL

Horsey has a budget of 15k for his new jacks but the cost of the project with floor to ceiling windows and clinical white fixtures will cost 250k

Seems to be his formula.  Massive big box/shipping container with very big windows decorated with all the warmth of a clinical laboratory.

His latest fascination seems to be library type homes. Soulless places that would remind you of an expensive trip to meet a shrink. The house he brought them to in Drumcondra was f**king awful.

I didn't see all of the programme.  Just caught the last 20mins and was half watching.

Money is no object.   Ah sure whats another 100 grand.  You've come this far you might as well go that bit further and splash out on doing it right.

I saw him making a mistake last night giving the wrong quote because he didnt read an email right. 

His designs have a distinctive Soviet ambience about them.  Cold minimalist boxes.   Like summat you would see in Dresden in 1981.

Big time I hated it.  I was watching an episode a few weeks ago and My little 3 year old said it’s a library can we go
To the library.  

To be fair last night the couple wanted the extra spend and knew ir was not a financial investment.
