It has size, quality, and something elusive

SOME houses stand out from the rest, not just for their size or status or appointment — but because they work.

While many will equate the design of a house with its facade, (and that’s partly true), the essence of house design is fitness for purpose — doing what it’s supposed to do well.

And in the case of this house at Ballyellis, Mallow, the flow is superb: someone sat down and thought about how they wanted the space to work — and then thought about the furniture, curtains and colours.
