Every angle covered in Ryvoan, Castleconnell

This striking architect-designed family home has something for everyone, says Trish Dromey.

The architect for Ryvoan at Castleconnell in Limerick threw symmetry to the winds to create a unique and striking property with a range of different angles, shapes, slopes and windows.

It has windows which are wide, others that are narrow, square ones, rectangular ones as well as dormer windows with flat roofs and dormer windows with arched roofs. The roof shapes and slopes are also varied and asymmetrical, and the architect completed Ryvoan’s striking appearance by painting it a deep rich shade of ochre yellow.
