Musician Áine Duffy recounts how she built her own DIY annexe on her parents’ land for a song.
To build my little studio, I first went to the Credit Union and got a loan of €12k, then drove to a company that has a seconds factory where I bought the windows. I designed around these, keeping sunlight and privacy in mind.
I repurposed an old door my cousin had lying around and made it like the outside of my house; I put a film over the window for privacy.
