Mace wins redevelopment work at London鈥檚 Great Hall
07 March 2025
Mace has been appointed to redevelop Imperial College London鈥檚 largest venue, The Great Hall, located in the Sherfield Building on its South Kensington campus in the UK.

Mace鈥檚 retrofit team will transform the 4,230 sq. ft. hall into a flexible, multipurpose space, that can be converted into three lecture theatres.
Designed by Burwell Architects, a key feature will be the creation of removable partitions, enabling the hall to be divided into three distinct areas while retaining its function as an event space. These motorised partitions will provide acoustic insulation between sections, supported by a state-of-the-art AV system.
In addition, semi-automatic retractable seating will facilitate a quick switch from a theatre setup to an open-space configuration when the hall is used as a single large venue.
The work will be carried out within a live environment, with the Sherfield Building remaining fully operational throughout construction.
Stewart Ward, Managing Director Fit Out & Retrofit, Mace Construct, said, 鈥淭ransforming Imperial鈥檚 Great Hall into a multipurpose space with removable motorised partitions is an ambitious forward-looking project, which will set a new standard for quality for future buildings on the campus.鈥�
Completion is expected in summer 2026.
