The practice was commissioned by a London based developer to prepare proposals for a major new Irish distribution centre for a leading multi-national clothing retailer.
The 500,000sqft facility is located on a greenfield site, on zoned industrial land near Naas, Co. Kildare. It is the retailers first fully automated centre, where close collaboration with their in-house technical team has been critical.
Their storey requirements placed particular demands on building height, necessitating careful negotiations with the local planning office.
BIM modelling proved a critical tool in looking to integrate the building shell with the tenants equipment fit-out.
