In the throes of a housing crisis, a little imagination and skill can go a long way, as happened in Youghal, County Cork, where a ground-floor office unit in an apartment block has been given a new identity.
All of this has been made possible by the vision and imagination of interior designer and stylist Catherine O'Flynn and her strong collaboration with her client.“There are towns full of commercial properties with potential to be turned into homes,” says Catherine. “There are such advantages to living in the town, seeing neighbours and walking to the shops.”
