Antipas Jones is an architecture office based in Dublin. Founded in 2017 by Lucy Jones and Christophe Antipas; our approach is grounded in research, collaboration and innovation. We have earned a reputation for building simple, thoughtful solutions in response to complex, cost-sensitive briefs.
We enjoy collaboration and understand that successful communication with clients and collaborators lies at the centre of any successful project. We have an experienced and passionate team and attract a diverse client base. Our work includes a range of project types from scenography to housing developments.
Our aim is to develop designs which are specific to site, program and user and which exceed the needs and aspirations of each client. Research lies at the centre of this method and we enjoy developing new approaches for projects, be it an overall site strategy or an innovative construction detail.
