A Co Clare man told his wife that he would be sending her a bill for the costs of accommodating her ‘exceptionally difficult’ and 'disruptive' mother in the marital home.
|
At the family law court in Ennis, the man said his 78-year-old mother-in-law broke a number of boundaries while staying at the marital home.
|
Documenting the instances, the man said that his mother-in-law came into the marital bedroom in her underwear one Saturday morning when he was having a lie-in with his wife; re-arranged his socks, underwear and shirts in his wardrobe and came into the en-suite bathroom when he was drying himself after a shower.
|
The court heard that the marriage between the couple "has irretrievably broken down" due to a financial issue and that the presence of the mother-in-law at the home has been a continuing source of tension over recent months.
|
In the case, the man’s wife was seeking a safety order against her husband but Judge Fiona Lydon said that it hasn’t been proven that a safety order is required and dismissed the application.
|
The wife told the court that her husband told her that “I can expect from his solicitor a bill for my mother staying in the family house. However, I pay all the bills”.
|
One flashpoint was on Christmas night last when the Clare man was watching a Tommy Fleming concert on TV.
|
The woman has been staying on with the couple off and on for a number of years and arrived at the martial home last June and remained there until recently.
|
The man said that he would have “no problem" if the woman came three or four times a year spending three or four weeks at a time.
|
He said: “But the thing is she is a guest in my house. She cannot - I’m sorry - she cannot be allowed to raise her voice at me and tell me what I can watch and can’t watch on television.
|
The man said that because of his mother-in-law’s “sulking behaviour, she is an exceptionally difficult woman”.
|
The court also heard that the man spent €900 on shrubs and plants and that the mother-in-law pulled up plants and shrubs that didn’t appeal to her and threw them into the bin.
|
His counsel told the court that the mother-in-law “has been causing so much trouble and strife and is so disruptive as a guest in a house”.
|
The man told the court that his marriage was over after he felt that he had been ‘played’ by his wife when he claimed she reneged on a commitment on the ownership of the marital home before he spent €100,000 renovating it.
|
This was rejected by the woman’s solicitor who said that she paid half the deposit for the home and has repaid all mortgage payments to date.
|
The man said that he looked after his wife very well. He said that any time he would return home from overseas, he would buy his mother-in-law perfume while his wife “would get a €600 dress. She got a €12,500 engagement ring. This woman is spoiled”.
|
Counsel for the man said that there isn’t a shred of evidence that he has ever been violent towards his wife.
|
She said: “Yes - he may use strong language and strong words such as ‘spoiled’ ‘played on’ and ‘in a bind’ - none of those words could ever come close to amounting to domestic violence as provided under the Domestic Violence Act."
|
In evidence, the man said that he took photos on his smartphone of his wife relaxing with a glass of wine with him watching Lethal Weapon in March of this year.
|
In her ruling, Judge Lydon said that she was mindful of this scene when dismissing the application.
|
Judge Lydon said that the wife in the case is obviously stressed due to the relationship breaking down and asked her husband “to treat her with the respect she is due”.

WHAT do the Tate Gallery in London, the Musée d'Orsay in Paris and MUMOK in Vienna have in common? While all of them exhibit art, the buildings were originally built for different purposes: the Tate Gallery used to be a power station, the Musée d'Orsay was a railway station and MUMOK served as the Austrian pavilion for the Brussels EXPO back in 1958. Through adaptive reuse, i.e. reusing old sites or buildings for purposes other than those for which they were built, these create a link between the old and new while providing a sense of continuity in the urban fabric.
|
Globally there are many examples of older buildings that have been converted into apartments, offices, exhibition spaces or any number of other uses. However, Slovakia is far from a shining example in terms of massive reconstruction projects, particularly given how protests by the general public, as well as architects and preservationists, failed to halt the demolition of numerous historical industrial premises across the country, like Kablo and Gumon in Bratislava, for example. Experts attribute the current cheerless situation with regard to preservation or conversion projects to a lack of support from the state, either financial or institutional, as well as the legacy of the previous regime, during which almost everything old was deemed ‘wrong’ and often replaced by new structures, as well as a lack of promotion of the idea that unique, older architecture is worth preserving, even if it no longer serves its original purpose.
|
Fortunately, Slovakia can boast of at least a few positive examples of conversion projects that were initiated either by ‘enlightened’ business entities or enthusiastic locals, and which have received acclaim abroad. These include Design Factory and Refinery Gallery in Bratislava, the ongoing project of the New Synagogue in Žilina and Kulturpark and Kulturfabrik in Košice.
|
Architect Martin Paško has been converting historical premises and buildings for 22 years, 11 of which he spent working abroad on projects like the Museumquartier complex in Vienna and the Schauspielhaus culture centre in Zurich.
|
In Slovakia, Paško, together with his colleagues, is behind the projects of Design Factory and Refinery Gallery in Bratislava.
|
Design Factory is located in a former industrial zone close to the centre of Bratislava. The building is owned by regional energy distribution company ZSE. It originally housed a factory that produced and assembled construction materials. The revitalised premises, which retain the original industrial atmosphere, have held over 400 events since opening in 2005, which Paško views as proof that their ‘mission’ succeeded.
|
Apart from Design Factory, Paško’s team designed the reconstruction of a former ZSE switching room into a meeting centre and the Meteorit theatre. He is also working on the Refinery Gallery project, which will revitalise two old halls on the premises of the Slovnaft refinery in Bratislava, which used to serve as an assembly hall and a warehouse.
|
Paško and his colleagues have also worked on the reconstruction of the former power station in Piešťany and its conversion into a centre for children, Eureka Centrum, where they can learn about how electricity works. He is also preparing a project to salvage the former granary in Jarovce, close to Bratislava, and to convert it into the new Design Centrum.
|
Architect Martin Jančok considers it interesting that when working on conversion projects, the architect does not start from scratch, and does not build from a clean slate, but rather has the chance to continue something, or to link the site’s previous function with its history. He believes that in the end this is also beneficial for towns themselves.
|
According to Jančok, when structures in a town transform gradually, they provide a sense of continuity and remain functional, contrary to brand new structures that replace old ones and need to become ‘rooted’.
|
Jančok has already worked on several conversion projects of varying sizes. Together with architect Aleš Šedivec, Jančok designed the Alexis bookshop, located in one of the former workshops in the old Cvernovka factory. He also worked on the Záhrada (Garden) project, a cultural centre in Banská Bystrica.
|
But his current project, the reconstruction and conversion of the New Synagogue in Žilina, designed by prominent German architect Peter Behrens, into a cultural centre, is of much greater significance.
|
Because of all these factors, it is crucial that the entire project is carried out in a dignified and sensible way, which means that expectations are high, according to Jančok.
|
The project of the synagogue in Žilina is an example of a civic initiative arriving from the local community.
|
When the former synagogue ceased to serve as a cinema back in 2010, the local Jewish community, which owns it, offered to rent it for the symbolic sum of €1 without placing any restrictions on its future use. Marek Adamov of the non-governmental organisation Truc Sphérique (TS), which had already been successfully running the Stanica Cultural Centre in the building of the old and still operating Žilina-Záriečie railway station, opted to rent the building. Adamov turned to Jančok, with whom he had worked in the past. The result is a reconstruction project of an exceptional building, turning the former synagogue into a kunsthalle style cultural centre, for which they have already won the Bauwelt Advancement Award 2013 in Germany.
|
The synagogue was built between 1928 and 1931 and it served its original purpose for just a few years until the Second World War. After the war the building was used first as a theatre and concert hall, then as the auditorium of Žilina University and later as a cinema. When the synagogue was adapted for use as an auditorium and a cinema, the whole interior was significantly altered, and pasteboard was installed on the walls, covering the original design including the inside of the 17.5-metre high cupola.
|
The plan is to restore and display as much of Behrens’ original design as possible, while simultaneously converting the synagogue into a cultural centre.
|
Reconstruction work started in 2012, and Adamov hopes that the synagogue will start fully serving its new purpose in 2014.
|
All of these factors create challenges for everyone working on the project. Jančok specified that only a few pieces of the building’s original documentation were preserved, and that they are only gradually putting together the whole mosaic, with the help of Magdaléna Kvasnicová and other experts from the Institute of Construction and Architecture at the Slovak Academy of Sciences, who conducted the architectural and historical research on the building.
|
Architect Irakli Eristavi from the ZeroZero architectural studio agrees that each project of this type must be preceded by a thorough analysis.
|
“This preparatory phase, together with a detailed architectonical study, is exceptionally important so that it is possible to find the proper extent of interventions in the existing building and to find the balance between new architectonical input and original architectural substance,” Eristavi told The Slovak Spectator, adding that achieving this balance is probably the biggest challenge with conversion projects.
|
ZeroZero has designed a project to revitalise the former military barracks on Kukučínova street in Košice into a multi-use cultural centre, called Kulturpark. This project, along with Kunsthalle, which involved the conversion of a disused indoor swimming pool into an art and cultural centre, is part of the 2013 European Capital of Culture project in Košice.
|
“The revitalisation of the former barracks and their conversion into Kulturpark is an exceptionally extensive and demanding investment project,” Eristavi told The Slovak Spectator.
|
The project involves the reconstruction of three 19th century historical structures built by the Austro-Hungarian army, which will be complemented by new architectural details and infrastructure, located in a compact premises with a beautiful park, with the construction of new, smaller pavilions. The main focus of Kulturpark is the central building, with multifunctional halls, exhibition premises and other auxiliary functions related to administration, heating, etc. This building was rebuilt several times in the past and the scope of the current adaptations within it are the biggest within the whole project.
|
It was also exceptionally demanding to find a way to fulfil the requirements of the investor for the technical parameters of the structures with respect to the rentability of the future operation of Kulturpark.
|
“Respect to former buildings … was the most important for us from the very beginning,” said Eristavi, adding that their ambition was for the new and the original in the area to complement each other.

Doing a complete room overhaul for the dolls. It's a little hard to get inspired taking doll photos when everything is a mishmash of dolls all over the place...hence, the lack of activity around here and the ongoing process of reorganization in the doll room. Here's a sneak preview. My partner and I have decided to add more shelving for future dolls and such. My Ikea Detolf glass curios remain, just moved against another wall. I've also finally gotten smart and thought of a way to squeeze in an actual desk for my photo box instead of having it on a low side table, with me crouched over every time I take pictures. I'll definitely take an "after" photo when this madness is over.
|
For how this room looked like previously, check out Doll Epic on facebook HERE.
|
This looks like it will be wonderful when you are finished, your white shelving will give the dolls great spaces. You are giving me ideas - my dolls are still all over the place.
|
Sometimes I wonder what we did before IKEA came along ... I love that you can just keep adding on more shelving so easily. Looking forward to seeing your room finished.
