Orla Murphy and Dermot McCabe were appointed architects in residence in Cavan Co. Council in 2007. As part of the residency, they mapped the laneways between Cavan town’s two main streets and designed and produced a hand-made Atlas recording them. Secondary school students contributed to the research, through a series of workshops. The work residency culminated in an exhibition in 2008 and publication of the Atlas of Cavan.
