In line with the Miesian design of the new 8 storey-over-basement, c.15,000 sqm building with its glass and deeply-articulated bronze façade, the office interior design concept aims to retain a substantial classical, modernist approach with high quality finishes, fittings and furniture in general monochromatic theme and sparse highlights of colour to distinguish between floors. 

MCA Architects we appointed to deliver due diligence services and office interior fit out for Grant Thornton’s new Ireland Head Office building on City Quay.
