Chester Design Foundation

A concept store, gallery and creative hub in Chester was officially opened last week by the CEO of the British Fashion Council.

Chester Design Foundation, which will contain the ōH Concept Store and ōH Collective atelier studio, opened on Bridge Street on Thursday (November 2).
