Project

Glass Bottle

20 years after the closure of the Irish Glass Bottle factory, the Ronan Group Real Estate and Lioncor are developing the site into a vibrant waterfront community.  This new urban quarter is located between Dublin City and Dublin Bay and will transform approximately 15 hectares of a former industrial site into a new neighbourhood with a mix of residential buildings (housing for up to 9.500 people!), offices, retail, hotels, cultural and community facilities, all within walking distance of Dublin City Centre.

Design & wayfinding

First designs

In close cooperation with Wayfinders, the Irish specialists in architectural signage, we developed a wayfinding strategy for this vibrant new neighbourhood.  Due to the vast size of the site, the area has been divided into zones. Within each zone, the relevant information is displayed.

At the same time, we have made initial designs for efficiently guiding the various users to their destination. 

Below are some sketches of these first designs.
