DUBLIN, IRELAND

Documenting a rich history.

DLA Piper reached out to THEM in search of redefining the culture and identity presented through their workspace. As a global law firm spanning across 40 countries, DLA Piper are committed to excellence in how they represent their clients, develop, and serve their communities. Our role was to reintegrate their origins into their Dublin offices space. We were responsible for the conceptual curation and execution of a series of artworks that represent key moments and figures in Irish culture.

As an agency that delivers concept research for art pieces that express the local and individual culture of our clients, we identified key moments that represent DLA Piper’s culture. The creative challenge on this project was to design and produce individual art pieces that told a story in an abstract way about each meeting room name. Because the client culture is to be bold, exceptional, creative, inclusive, diverse and thoughtful we had to be able to convey those concepts into the visual of each piece.

The Rainbow

One of the many reasons of pride for Ireland is its status as the first state to pass same-sex marriage by popular vote, as a celebration of the incredible diversity of the LGBTQIA+ community. Diversity and building strong communities is at the core of DLA Piper values.⁠ The creative challenge on this project was to design and produce individual art pieces that told in an abstract way the story about the name of each meeting room.⁠ ⁠

The Mitchell

Senator George Mitchell played an indispensable role in developing the fruitful, caring and full-of-heritage relationship that the United States of America and the Republic of Ireland have today. At DLA Piper, we had the honour of having him open our offices in 2019.

The Hume

John Hume is the only person in history to have been awarded all three of these peace awards: the Nobel Peace Prize, the Gandhi Peace Prize and the Martin Luther King Award. ‘Ireland’s Greatest’ is a global icon of complete devotion to the peace of his country.

The Robinson

The brooch former president Mary Robinson often wore in her public appearances, the emblem of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, is for many a symbol of the better world we are trying to create for ourselves, and an inspiration for progress. At DLA Piper we share the same values and goals towards building a better world.

The Ted

As one of Ireland’s many icons, Father Ted has brought joy and laughter to many generations, defining Irish pop-culture. At DLA Piper we celebrated this gem of culture by naming our office move to 40 Molesworth Street Project Ted.
