Trading both online and from a brick-and-mortar shop in Dublin town, an emphasis is placed on original design and craftsmanship. Established and emerging makers are represented, the common thread being a passion for the handmade, and an appreciation for Irish heritage crafts. In 2015, Clare and Laura launched their own jewellery brand, Names Dublin. Working from their upstairs metal workshop, their aim is to create beautiful, uncluttered and versatile jewellery created by hand using traditional techniques. Nowhere Nowhere has transitioned in its menswear focus to being quite possibly the most ‘street’ store in the city. If you want to get your mitts on that pair of Nike Air Max 97 Ultra or some #adidasxrafsimons #stansmith then Nowhere is your place. Its slick interior also houses a raft of cool brands such as Champion, Soulland and Wood Wood. And there’s fancy bags, hats, fragrances and socks to make you look and feel like a Monocle man. 65 Aungier Street, Dublin 2 01 607 8983 nowhere.ie 41 Drury Street, Dublin 2 t: 01-6798871 irishdesignshop.com d4 22 28
