€50 Can Get You Expert Advice from an Architect

WEXFORD, Ireland - April 18, 2014 - PRLog -- Wexford, 18 April 2014 - Isabel Barros Architects are delighted to announce their participation in this year’s “Simon Open Door 2014”.

Anyone hoping to build, renovate or extend their home may be interested in this initiative. Isabel Barros Architects will offer an hour long consultation in return for a donation of €50 to charity. All of the money raised goes towards the work of the Simon Communities of Ireland.

The Simon Communities of Ireland work with people who experience homelessness and housing exclusion in Ireland. Simon has a vision of society where no one is homeless. All people who are homeless, or at risk of facing homelessness, are given every opportunity to realise their potential to live fulfilled lives in appropriate homes of their own. Simon is recognised for providing innovative solutions to ending homelessness and for influencing government policy and public opinion.

The Royal Institute of Architects of Ireland (RIAI) and its registered Architects celebrate this year the 10th anniversary of the RIAI Simon Open Door initiative. Over the past 10 years, almost €300,000 has been raised for the Simon Communities of Ireland, and over 5000 meetings between architects and members of the public were held.

“This is an excellent initiative where anyone can get practical advice on a range of issues, while helping the homeless,” said Isabel Barros, MRIAI, “Architects can help you to explore all the possible options for your project. The finally result will be a building that is specifically designed for your needs.”
