Ireland's Eye from Burrow

Home Water is a collection of photographic prints featuring some of our favourite swim spots around Dublin. Created by Niall Meehan of Sea Studio exclusively for Irish Design Shop, each photograph is taken from the sea by avid sea swimmer Niall.

This image was taken at high tide on Burrow Beach looking out towards Ireland's Eye. A much loved spot for many Northsiders, Burrow can feel like a secret beach accessible only from a couple of points alongside the Dart line.

Each print is an edition of 30, signed and numbered by Niall on Hannemühle 308gm, 100% cotton paper, and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Available in a choice of two sizes; the small print which is mounted, measures 297mm wide x 325mm deep. The large print comes unmounted measuring 420mm x 420mm, including 15mm white border (pictured), and is supplied rolled in acid-free tissue paper in a sturdy cardboard tube.

Niall Meehan is a photographer and avid sea swimmer, and established Sea Studio in 2019, to share his love of the ocean. Originally from Sandycove, Co. Dublin, he now lives in Wicklow, where he can enjoy the brisk Irish Sea every day.

Niall has been swimming his whole life, from Dún Laoghaire Sea Baths to Sandycove Harbour and the iconic Forty Foot. His love of sea swimming and of image-making have become one. As everyday in the sea is so different, his aim is to make an image that foxes a moment of the sea in time, a reminder of how it feels to be alive.

Each print is limited edition giclée print, which is signed and numbered by the artist. Photographs are printed on museum-grade, Hannahmühle photo rag 308g/m² 100% cotton paper. The smooth surface texture, with its special touch and feel of genuine art paper, guarantees archival standards.
