When it moved to its Cumberland Place office in 2016 it eschewed Dublin's so-called Silicon Docks for an area that is steeped in the city's history.
That is the Twitter way — to be personable, authentic and connected to the place you are located. It sees these trends as dominating the workplace in the future and is proudly showcasing them in their flagship 85K SF European office, which was developed by Hibernia REIT.

“Personalisation is certainly a trend that will influence future real estate strategies and it can be looked at in two spectrums," Boyle said. "One of them is making it adaptable to people’s needs whether they have certain ergonomic requirements or preferences.
"The other aspect is making them feel like they’re contributing to how the space occupied, whether it’s by allowing them to add things to the space that they value and appreciate. The goal is to make them feel that they belong, make them feel like they have some autonomy over how the space is used."
