McCann Moore Architects is a small architectural practice established in 2007 by Sean McCann and Paul Moore, both graduates of Queen’s University Belfast. Since its founding, the firm has concentrated on residential design, operating from South Belfast and expanding into Dublin, where its registered address is in Mount Merrion. The directors have more than 60 years of combined experience and have completed over 100 projects, almost exclusively in the residential sector.
The company was formally incorporated in 2019 and maintains the status of a micro company. With a portfolio spanning new builds, home extensions, and renovations, McCann Moore Architects is recognized for its hands-on approach and project oversight from concept to completion. The practice emphasizes a careful understanding of client needs, often providing 3D visualizations to communicate project concepts.
Recent examples of their work include extensive renovations and extensions of period homes, where they have been tasked not only with preserving original architectural details but also integrating contemporary family spaces and meeting modern environmental standards. The team manages the entire process, including planning permission, project management, space planning, and interior design.
McCann Moore Architects’ projects primarily serve clients in Dublin, Belfast, and other parts of Ireland. The firm has received industry recognition, such as being named finalists for the Northern Design Awards and winning an award for innovation in residential renovation in Northern Ireland. Its guiding principle is to balance creative and practical requirements while delivering homes tailored to client aspirations.
