This project involved the construction of an 80 bed Community Nursing Unit (CNU) as an extension to the Sheil Hospital, Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal over three floors in a combination of Long Stay, Short Stay and Dementia Wards.

The new extension is located and designed to minimise impact on the existing protected building – leaving the large portions of the existing Sheil building exposed and visible. The development of a two wing solution breaks the bulk of the new extension when viewed from the south, each wing set up on a different axis – established based on the influence of natural daylight and views from the building.
