Commercial - 1 Richmond Parade

A stunning collection of 7 new bespoke flats in the heart of Brighton's vibrant City Centre.

This image shows a cut-through view of the third floor penthouse with south-facing terrace, left.

As-built photo framing the view from the penthouse terrace facing east into the flat. This image captures the dramatic +10 metre unbroken view across the living area and breakfast bar into the kitchen.

The scheme was approved by the LPA’s Conservation Team. The strong black horizontal door seals and dark parapet trim play with notions of internal and external flow versus authentic modern juxtaposition, encapsulating the City’s unapologetic yet playful vibe.

The penthouse study is one of our favourite spaces in this flat.  Despite its central location it is a breathtakingly quiet, peaceful and secluded space, hidden away on all sides.

Small spaces can be highly successful if thoughtfully designed.  Don't miss our article in The Daily Telegraph, "Secrets of a Planning Maestro", on why bigger isn't always better when it comes to well designed spaces.

For reference a full king-sized double bed plus bedside tables has been added to the photo to demonstrate the luxurious size of the room.

The “small print”…

Just Plans is a Limited Company Companies House reference 10113657

By “advice” or “consultancy”, we mean that we are generally happy to offer provisional thoughts and suggestions to homeowners and other existing or potential clients, based on our experience of having submitted hundreds of planning applications for many different properties for many different councils over more than a 20 year period.

Because of this and other similar experience, many people who are considering a project find it useful to talk us through their plans. At our reasonable discretion, we are generally happy to spend some unpaid time listening and walking people through the general process and the typical different options that they might like to consider.

Any such advice or consultancy is limited to provisional and general guidance. The risks and rewards associated with any project or decision exclusively remain the homeowner’s or the developer’s, unless we have explicitly stated otherwise in writing and have been paid to share in such risk or such responsibility.

Likewise, we assume no liability for taking on any “due diligence”, any CIL negotiation, accurately predicting the local authority’s decisions, any role as Principal Designer or similar, or any other role or function whatsoever, whether or not it forms part of RIBA or RICS or any similar legislation, unless we have explicitly stated otherwise in writing, and unless we have received payment for the same.

Unless otherwise agreed, we act exclusively as our clients’ agents, and under their authority. We agree jobs on a case by case basis, always evidenced in writing, and never on a merely verbal basis.

The scheme was approved following praise from the LPA’s Conservation Team. The soft vertical cladding in warm grey foils and blends the internal and external horizontal flooring.  The strong black horizontal door seals and dark parapet trim play with notions of internal and external flow versus authentic modern juxtaposition, encapsulating the City’s unapologetic yet playful vibe.
