THE CHALLENGE

After standing empty for more than three decades, the Grade II-listed Horton Chapel needed extensive renovation to prevent further dereliction and create a new community space. The Horton Chapel Arts & Heritage Society charity appointed Eden to deliver a full fit out, transforming the building into a vibrant arts and heritage venue. With a 12-week programme and a 2,000 sq ft project size, the challenge was to restore historic features while introducing modern facilities for café, performance, and teaching spaces.
