Miesian Plaza (formerly known as the Bank of Ireland Headquarters) is an office building complex on Lower Baggot Street, Dublin. It is designed in the International Style, inspired by the architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, particularly his Seagram Building.[1] It was designed by the firm Scott Tallon Walker, one of the founders of which, Robin Walker, studied under and taught with Mies van der Rohe, though the building was chiefly designed by partner, Ronnie Tallon.[2] Dublin City Council described it as "one of the most important Modernist buildings in Ireland"[3] and "Dublin’s finest example of the restrained and elegant Miesian style",[4] and its facade and plaza are protected structures.[3]
