COADY Architects’ Post

COADY Director Tomas Sexton participated in a lively discussion at the Bisnow Conference on The Outlook of Residential Development, with fellow panelists Patrick Phelan, Hazel Jones , Claire Solon and John Tuohy, recently held at the Aviva Stadium. Rent caps, funding opportunity, supporting wider tenure mix, planning regulations and changes in design strategies were all part of the discussion. Tomas shared insights from our recent experiences navigating the planning process, emphasizing the importance of early and proactive engagement with planning authorities to streamline approvals and mitigate potential delays. He also highlighted the significant impact of new fire regulations on multi-unit residential design, noting that these regulations are driving innovative approaches to safety and compliance. Tomas discussed how these changes are influencing design strategies, leading to more resilient and adaptable residential developments that prioritize occupant safety without compromising on aesthetic and functional quality. . The main take away was private funding and improved infrastructure delivery and planning efficiencies are required to ramp up supply to meet the housing demand in the coming years. #rentcaps #designstrategies #planning #bisnow #residevelopment
