Dublin’s south side is an increasingly good place to be as a creative, with a tight-knit design community that is incredibly welcoming. The streets are in a constant state of flux, with new restaurants and shops joining the classic historic charm that the city is steeped in. There’s nothing better than spending a Sunday wandering around the myriad of book stores before retiring to a cosy pub for the evening.
Labyrinthian shop that sells homewares, cooking equipment, gadgets and other paraphernalia
Repurposed Chinese restaurant that now almost exclusively serves delicious chicken of many varieties
We cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful place. To summarise, it is an excellent antiquarian book shop that specialises in 20th century Irish literature and books on Irish topography and history, but spend some time working through its shelves of first editions and the selection of maps in its basement and an image of the landscape of Irish design through the decades starts to appear. A true treasure trove.
