University of Brighton

The commission involved the creation of a public realm masterplan for a comprehensive development involving new housing, office space, student accommodation and academic buildings.

The Moulsecoomb campus forms a substantial part of the masterplan which will deliver a new Business School and multi-storey car park for the university as part of a comprehensive campus rationalisation and expansion programme. The landscape design creates a sequence of linked social spaces between new and existing buildings along a connecting ‘Boulevard’ which also encourages public access.

The integration of the campus with the existing landscape and neighbourhood is a key element of the strategy, extending the character and ecology of the South Downs into the site.
