Carter Square features a sprawling map of Dublin etched in paving stones, depicting the city as it was when Bolands Mills was founded. The map also celebrates James Joyce – one of the most influential Irish writers of the 20th century – with quotes from his works, including one from Ulysses that references a “Boland’s breadvan”.

In collaboration with Irish Stone, we contributed to the creation of this bespoke map design using Kilkenny Limestone. The intricate details of the map were achieved through precision sandblasting across the stone surface. Comprising 80 individual stone pieces, this project showcases a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail. Further images and details of the project can be viewed as you scroll down.
