Each year, since 1975, Scott Tallon Walker Architects have worked with an Irish artist to create a unique Christmas card which reflects our legacy and our commitment to the arts.

Our cards have portrayed the remarkable works of Patrick Scott, recognised as one of the first exponents of pure abstraction in Irish art; Sarah Walker, an established Cork contemporary artist; and for the last six years, we featured Richard Gorman, a leading Irish and internationally recognised abstract artist. We are proud to have worked with Richard since 2017; and 2022 represented the final card in his series. The 6 cards together create a great visual composition.

In 2024, we will return to our Christmas cards and partner with a new artist to bring a fresh perspective and further creativity to this almost 50-year tradition. We believe that our Christmas cards are truly unique and as a leading Irish-based design practice, we are very proud of them.

While we explore a new artist to partner with for our next series of Christmas cards, we have decided this year to continue our support of Dublin Simon Community by making a donation to them in lieu of issuing our Christmas cards, thereby building on the participation of our colleagues earlier this year in the Dragons at the Docks event in Dublin, contributing to a grand total of €250,000 raised for Dublin Simon Community. Our Christmas donation will help to provide ongoing support for people who are affected by homelessness this time of year.

We wish you a happy Christmas and peaceful new year.
