ClientBord Bia
studio | dsq were appointed as Architects & Designers to create a ‘Global Hub’ and future workplace for the Irish Food Board and government state agency. The design expands on the brief to create a new destination and builds on the understanding that the future working environment, will be ‘less about work and more about place’. The sculpted reception space incorporates a double height, biophilic (preserved moss) wall and presents an impactful backdrop; with an innovatively detailed ‘Cocoon like’, timber enclosure helping to create both a warm welcome & dramatic sense of arrival.
