Who we are
Thirty years ago the first edition of Blueprint Home Plans was published by Oisín Publications, 4 Iona Drive, Dublin 9. The book presented 44 varied designs. Our book was a consistent best seller, distributed through Easons and culminated in a tenth edition with 250 designs in 2004. Technology has accelerated since 1981 and the time is now right to launch our 11th edition of Blueprint Home Plans online.
