The Exo Building, Office building at North Wall Quay, Ireland
The Exo Building is an office structure at North Wall Quay in Dublin featuring a distinctive exposed steel exoskeleton that forms its outer framework. The building contains 17 floors with open office spaces set within this structural design.
The site was originally part of Dublin Bay until land reclamation following the construction of the North Wall in the early 18th century transformed it into solid ground. This landfill project enabled the development of the modern port area and the waterfront structures that stand today.
The structure references Dublin's maritime heritage through its design, incorporating visual elements that reflect the industrial cranes and equipment of the historic port area.
The building can be accessed from street level and is well served by public transport connections nearby. Visitors can view the exterior structure and walk freely beneath the elevated design that allows clear passage underneath.
Two large steel trusses on the sides support the structure while also framing expansive views toward Dublin Port and the city skyline. This dual-purpose design allows these massive structural elements to serve as viewing frames for the surrounding landscape.
