The Criminal Courts Complex is one of the first public private partnership projects to be completed in Ireland. Its facade comprises a 21m tall, wide-flue, climate wall construction.

The twin skin outer wall is suspended from the roof structure and comprises a serrated, large format, overhanging assembly of low-iron, structurally glazed panels (7m tall x 2m wide).

The inner wall is screened using a series of bespoke, perforated, patterned and folded, bronze anodised, aluminium sheeting.
