Powerhouse Company designed an elegant workplace in Dublin for an international aircraft leasing company. With streamlined curves and luxurious finishes, the sleek and sustainable interior meets the highest standards of sustainability and evokes the glamour of travel and hospitality. The 6.500 m2 space includes an inviting lobby, restaurant, boardroom, fitness area, four floors of office space and an executive suite on the top floor. These functions are connected by spaces that encourage movement and communication between colleagues, advisors and clients. The main connecting element in the office, both literally and metaphorically, is a five-story sculptural spiral staircase with double-curved soffit finished in wengé veneer. To visually distinguish functions and provide orientation throughout the space, the office floors have subtle differences in layout and aesthetics. The ground floor is welcoming and focused on a hospitality experience; the first two office floors have partially open floor plans; while the third and fourth floors are fitted with enclosed offices along the facade. Finally, the executive floor has spectacular views of St. Stephen’s Green and provides a seamless transition from the lounge to the boardroom. The use of flowing lines paired with an elegant palette of materials including local natural stone, wood veneer and glass achieves a sleek yet classic design. Awarded LEED Platinum Certification, the space provides a healthy and sustainable environment.
