"Square Chapel Centre for the Arts on Site"
Construction has begun on our project in Halifax to ‘extended and improve’ the Grade II*-listed former chapel. The development includes a 108 seat multi-purpose auditorium fully-equipped for use as a cinema, studio and general performance space. The design borrows from the rectilinear form of the existing Chapel and features a copper-clad finish.

In addition to updating the dressing rooms, improving toilet facilities and an overhaul of the access and layout - a brand new 'delta' shaped foyer (complete with café-bar and outdoor seating area) links the auditorium to the existing Piece Hall and Square chapel buildings.

"Carbon Negative at NTU..."
It's great to see the "Heart of the Campus" development at NTU being enjoyed by both the students and academics in it's first operational semester.
And to hear that the Pavilion is the university’s first building to be awarded an A+ rated Carbon-Negative Energy Performance Certificate is fantastic news!

Environmental Manager Grant Anderson commented: “We have been working hard to improve our sustainability credentials and receiving an EPC rating of A+ for the new Pavilion building is an excellent achievement for the university."
