The Lyons Family
Charlotte and Jimmy Lyons and their 3 sons live in Bettystown, Co. Meath. The house is suitated on 1 and a half acres overlooking the Bettystown coastline.

Diarmuid's Challenge
Diarmuid's challenge was twofold - he needed to "add to the success of this site without diminishing the views". He also needed to create the feeling of being sheltered from the elements in a space that draws people together.
