The new building was designed by Malcolm Fraser Architects. The facilities include a 99 seat Storytelling Theatre, an open exhibition on 'Scotland's Stories', a 'Storytelling Café' and the George Mackay Brown Storytelling Library. It is owned by the Church of Scotland and also incorporates the Scottish Churches Parliamentary Office.
