The Dublin facility employs approximately 650 team members.
the brief
This new, world-class office space will ensure that West Pharma’s Irish operations continue to play a significant role in the continued expansion of its business across EMEA but also allow the teams at West Pharma to come out of their manufacturing center to a space with agility, safety and Covid-complicany top of mind.
The brief was to create an environment for relocation of a number of key teams away from the manufacturing facility to an open, multi function agile office space. Engaged during Covid lockdown our brief was to design an office that had multiple “neighbourhoods” with unique utility. There was a requirement for some traditional, cellular offices but in addition there was acoustic breakout pods, enclosed 1 on 1 rooms, stand up town hall areas with high stool and perch seating as well as a multipurpose space that can be used for eating, individual working, relaxing or catching up with colleagues.
