A high‐rise housing scheme in Dublin that disperses affordable units in the same blocks as privately owned apartments, Clarion Quay was planned as a key piece in the city's docklands regeneration. As Robert Payne describes, the architects, Urban Projects, chose to elevate the high‐rise as a ‘heroic’ and ‘expressive’ form rather than turning their backs on the building type's Modernist past.
