This 2,677sq.m office building is the new European Parliament Liaison Office in Dublin. The building also features the Europa Experience.
The Chatham House project involved the demolition of the existing structure and new build of a 6-storey commercial block, with a basement and sub-basement. The building's extensive glazing enhances transparency, while brick feature panels break up blank façades. South-facing terraces on levels 4 and 5 provide office breakout spaces and create the illusion of a lower building height. The level 5 façade features and intricate, full-wrap stepped glass design, resembling a glass box from the ground. It offers panoramic city views and an exclusive penthouse feel. The project location posed significant challenges, necessitating ongoing engagement with local stakeholders like the Westbury Hotel and No.4 Harry Street. Complex temporary designs allowed construction to proceed without disrupting nearby businesses and buildings. The building is certified LEED Gold and as such environmental and social sustainability were at the core of the design philosophy.
In 2024 the Chatham House Project won - Irish Construction Industry Awards - Commercial Contractor - Project of the Year.
