PROJECT REPORT: REGENERATION 29


the exclusive use of a private communal garden above the undercroft car park, which brings in natural daylight through carefully placed openings to provide a secure and pleasant environment, with EV charging points and sufficient headroom for larger vehicles. “Undoubtedly,” says Ella Brocklebank, head of communications and business development at main contractor Jenner, “this will be a landmark building for the region – a conceptually modern building, reflecting its generation.


STRIKING LANDSCAPE


aimising the benefits of the striing landscape, each property promises uninterrupted views over the English channel, and the individual homes and wider scheme alike have been designed to be built with quality “unequivocally at their core.”


According to Chris Page, senior project manager at Jenner, the overall masterplan of the development endeavours to create a unique waterfront environment for people to both live and work, while complementing the existing Victorian and Edwardian architecture of the neighbouring region. “Take a glance at the striking visuals prepared by the scheme’s architects,” says Chris of London-based practice ACME’s designs, which “showcase the


development in all its glory.” “You would be forgiven for believing the new homes were destined for far-off winter climes given its beachscape location, high-rise nature, and glamorous, white-briced facade with a definite feel of the new middle east to the building’s style and structure.”


Ella chimes in here: “Creating intrigue and capturing attention from far and wide, the project is bold in its intent and is certainly pushing the boundaries of design and construction.”


AN AMBITIOUS PLAN


The highly bespoke development is the first phase of an ambitious -unit masterplan for Folkestone seafront on behalf of developer client, the Folkestone Harbour and Seafront Development Company, backed by local philanthropist Sir Roger De Haan (founder of the Saga Group). It is intended to revitalise the overall seafront and Harbour Arm promenade area of the town’s ongoing regeneration programme. “The Folkestone Harbour & Seafront Development Company has been responsible for extensive renovations of the harbour area of the town,” explains Ella Brocklebank.


The Harbour Arm has been open since  and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Kent,” she continues.
