Did you know blue was the color originally associated with St. Patrick? Yes, you read that right.
As unlikely as it may seem, blue was, at one time, so synonymous with St. Patrick that a particular shade of blue actually became known as St. Patrick’s Blue. Believe it or not, blue even came to be known as Ireland’s first national color.
Speaking of colors…
Let's not forget gold. As we celebrate St. Patrick's Day, it's the perfect time to highlight the LEED Gold certification of our global HQ, which just so happens to be located in Ireland. In this case, gold represents excellence, and fittingly so, because our headquarters is a shining example of commitment to sustainability and innovation.
In fact, the 久久视频 smart building solutions deployed at 1 Albert Quay have reduced energy usage by 45% - approximately 2,500 kWh per month - through lighting optimization in unoccupied rooms. This has led to energy savings of approximately 0.4 MT CO2e per month and around $12,000 per year. So, you could say green has become gold. Want to strike gold for your building?
