From Simple alterations
& extensions
to new build dwellings
A home designed for your needs
Specialising in the architectural design of houses, house extensions, and planning permissions in Cork since 1998.
From simple alterations to large extensions, the outcome is the same. A transformed home, designed for your needs, making you fall in love with it all over again.
Our house plans are site-specific. Internal room layouts and window positions are designed to maximize the available solar potential. Attention to this alone can reduce your heating needs by 30% to maintain comfort and at no extra cost, just mindful design.
“Alan guided us through the house design and planning processes with understanding, good humour and attention to detail. He has a unique talent for understanding exactly what we wanted for our new home. We absolutely love our home which is full of unique features which we would never have thought of ourselves. It was a pleasure to work with Alan from start to finish. We would highly recommend Wiseman Designs.”

“We found working with Wiseman Designs to be a pleasure. We were constantly involved in the design process and felt empowered by that. The final design is different to what we envisaged but it is the right design. We found the whole process to be thoroughly enjoyable and inspiring.”
Aidan & Phil Duggan, Co. Cork
“Having been refused permission numerous times on our site, we were recommended to call Alan in. We were amazed when he got planning the first time. As he said himself, the design was site-specific, which appeased the planners, and regarding the other hurdles, it was just a matter of identifying the problem, to whom it affected, establishing a workable solution, and communicating this clearly to the relevant parties. He made it sound so simple.”
