The Digital Hub

Dublin, Ireland

The Digital Hub is a government-backed initiative set up to attract and develop a global digital centre within the City of Dublin, which will be home for digital media and innovation companies.

As part of our design, several late 18th and early 19th Century industrial buildings will be retained and reused including the largest surviving Smock Windmill in Europe. Commercial units on lower levels will be combined with Digital Hub offices and apartments overhead to allow a mix of uses in every part of this 3.2 acres/1.3 hectares City block.

At the heart of the design is the monumental brick Windmill which will form an entrance to the Digital Underground space, with taller elements including a 16 storey office building being the most prominent point of reference.
