Kensington Street
Kensington Street
Situated in Brighton’s North Laine area, the development revives previously vacant sites with a bold architectural statement that harmonises with the eclectic urban fabric. The design, influenced by the surrounding conservation area, uses a robust brick finish for durability and low maintenance. Composite windows and vibrant panels add character, drawing inspiration from Brighton’s colourful heritage.
This car-free development offers homes designed to Lifetime Home standards, with one unit made fully wheelchair-accessible. It reflects close collaboration with local stakeholders, including residents and the council, ensuring it meets both community and environmental needs.
Brighton faced a shortage of affordable homes and underused land. The council needed a high-quality, community-supported solution within a tight urban conservation area.
Baily Garner delivered 12 affordable homes across three infill sites, blending bold, low-maintenance design with the area’s character and accessibility standards.
Previously vacant land now supports a vibrant, car-free development that meets housing needs, enhances the local streetscape, and reflects strong community collaboration.
