The Ireland Companies Headquarters

Broward County, FL

When The Ireland Companies decided to relocate its headquarters from Miami, where it had been based since 1960, the chosen setting was in one of its 110 prime real estate projects: Shoppes on the Green.

The eight-acre Shoppes on the Green was originally designed by SRS in 2006 and has stood the test of time, fashion, and popularity. Its elegant Mediterranean character exudes a warm welcome to patrons who enjoy a variety of successful services, shops, and restaurants in three buildings. In 2019, the company adds two new buildings, including the 5,000 SF Ireland headquarters.

The Ireland Companies has been and is, still, a family-owned organization, reflected in a professional setting with a more congenial atmosphere than is typical. Each interior space —conference room, executive offices, staff lounge, production area—is individually distinctive, yet features a continuum of design elements that mimic or are found in nature.

To that end, SRS designed a dramatic reception area displaying a tableau of museum-quality artifacts of nature complemented by lighting that changes, like sunshine, from hour to hour, and an interior design theme expressed in rare woods, exotic textures, and unique artisan tiles and accent rugs, and variegated granite.
