The Main Building, St Fagans Museum

Following our successful hand over of the Y' Gweithdy building at St Fagans, JJ Interiors were appointed by Kier Construction to carry out the joinery and FF&E works to the main building at St Fagans Museum on the outskirts of Cardiff, South Wales. Part of the £30 million revamp works to the grade II-listed main building now provides a new entrance, reception area, shop and café. The Weston Centre for Learning includes activity spaces and a lecture theatre.

• 4m Wide Sliding Door partitioning the cafe from the main atrium

• New Shop including bespoke timber and glass display cabinets and mobile Corian® display units
