The Museum of Literature Ireland

Marcon has completed the fit-out of The Museum of Literature Ireland – a new landmark cultural centre in the heart of Dublin.  It is an ambitious €10.5m project that brings University College Dublin and the National Library of Ireland together to create a new literary attraction with international appeal.

MoLI features a series of immersive exhibitions that tell the story of Ireland’s literary heritage, from its earliest storytelling traditions to its finest contemporary writers. On display is a host of literary treasures from the National Library collection, including the very first copy of James Joyce’s Ulysses.

Offering immersive multimedia exhibitions, artefacts, historic house tours, research facilities and a digital broadcasting studio, as well as a bookshop and a café – not to mention the rather beautiful and tranquil gardens at the back of Newman House – the Museum of Literature Ireland is a major new contribution to Ireland’s literary landscape.

Marcon worked closely with internationally acclaimed museum and exhibition designers Ralph Appelbaum Associates to complete the fit-out of the building.
