About
In the space between what is, and what could be, each project begins with conversation and is shaped through clear, careful guidance, with attention to how you live every day.
Good architecture lives in the margins.
Margin was founded by
Nuala Cranney
A Belfast-based architect with over 15 years of experience, working across residential and commercial projects throughout Northern Ireland.
The practice is built around care, clarity, and considered thinking, guiding each stage in a way that feels straightforward and well supported.
Every project is shaped around you, your space, and how you want to live.
“Margin isn't just about adding space. It’s about shaping what matters and why.”
Sometimes that means extending. Sometimes reconfiguring what you’ve already got.
Sometimes securing planning permission that unlocks the true potential of a home, commercial building or site.
Every decision is made with both everyday life and long-term value in mind.
The result is architecture that feels calm, resolved, and built to last.
