It was built between 2012 and 2014 as a project involving hundreds of students and apprentices. The materials consist of a wide range of construction industry and household waste. It is the first public building in Europe to be built primarily of such products.

St Wilfrid’s Church, Brighton St Wilfrid’s Church is a former Anglican church in the Elm Grove area of Brighton, part of the English city of Brighton and Hove.

St Joseph’s Church, Brighton St Joseph’s Church is a Roman Catholic church in the Elm Grove area of Brighton, part of the English city of Brighton and Hove.
