Phase 2 of Dún Laoghaire Baths Redevelopment with the Architects Department from DLRCoCo is completed – a series of accessible ramps, platforms, gardens, viewing points and benches elongate towards East Pier. People gather here naturally – full of life, people eating ice cream, chatting, sitting around, walkers, skaters, swimmers – a real public space, and unique because of the sound, the light and smell of the sea. The long bench seats, undulating ground and changes in level connect the public to the beach with a wonderful sense of theatre.
