Back Half at Houston Hall

About this space

Back Half is a semi-private mezzanine area in the Event Space at Houston Hall, defined by its elevated, tucked-away position above the main industrial hall.

Design: The space features exposed brick, timber roof trusses and industrial metal-framed glazing for a warehouse-style interior. The finish palette combines worn timber, white subway tiles and pendant lighting that emphasises the venue's vertical volume.

Features: The area includes venue-standard Wi‑Fi and air conditioning, plus an integrated PA system and speakers for announcements or music. The area benefits from natural daylight and a mix of standing-height tables and stools for casual mingling. The venue provides a step-free guest entrance, accessible toilets and wheelchair access.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a relaxed, social standing reception or an informal seated meetup where guests circulate and mingle.
