Overview of service

ORS was proud to support the delivery of the CurrencyFair office fit-out in Ballsbridge, a contemporary Category B workplace project designed to reflect the company’s fast-paced fintech environment and commitment to innovation. The project involved a high-specification mechanical and electrical (M&E) fit-out focused on delivering a high-performance, energy-efficient and adaptable workspace tailored to modern ways of working.

A key feature of the fit-out was the installation of a state-of-the-art Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) air conditioning system, providing intelligent climate control across open-plan offices, collaboration areas and meeting suites. Designed to maximise occupant comfort while minimising operational costs and environmental impact, the system formed a central component of the project’s sustainable building strategy.

Working closely with the wider design and delivery team, ORS supported the successful coordination and compliance management of the fit-out, helping to deliver a future-ready workplace environment aligned with CurrencyFair’s operational and technological requirements.

Project Outcome

The fit-out included a full LED lighting scheme with advanced smart controls, presence detection and daylight dimming to improve comfort and energy efficiency. Upgraded data cabling and AV systems supported hybrid working and real-time collaboration, while acoustic treatments and ergonomic finishes created a flexible, future-ready workspace.

Challenges & Solution

The technically demanding nature of the CurrencyFair office fit-out required careful coordination, agile decision-making and close collaboration across the wider project team. ORS supported a structured and solutions-focused delivery approach, enabling technical queries, compliance requirements and building services integration challenges to be resolved efficiently throughout the programme.

The sophisticated M&E installation required careful sequencing and coordination to ensure the seamless integration of intelligent climate control, smart lighting systems and upgraded communications infrastructure. Through proactive engagement and continuous technical oversight, the project maintained momentum while achieving the quality, compliance and performance standards expected of a modern fintech workplace.

This collaborative approach was central to delivering a sustainable, smart and agile workspace aligned with CurrencyFair’s forward-thinking culture and operational objectives.
