The Three Tun Tavern
Blackrock, Dublin
The Three Tun Tavern in Blackrock Co Dublin blends traditional pub values with contemporary raw styling to create a fresh ‘layered’ interior that reflect the building & localities rich & varied history. The resulting scheme echoes those raw & contrasting qualities reminiscent of a New York Bistro.
Exposed brickwork & textured plaster sit side by side with polished panelling and refined light fittings to create a decadent shifting visual landscape of modern & bygone eras. The dynamic physicality of the building adds to the sense of theatre as you enter the pub at the highest level whereby the largest most dramatic space, the bar unfolds before you. A series of vistas open up to offer enticing glimpses of deliberately contrasting spaces that encourage exploration & discovery of a favourite ‘spot’ in this fresh take on a community pub.
