Folkestone A

The eight-storey building's identity is defined by bands of alternating balconies. While the adjacent Shoreline Crescent uses glazed bricks, the more complex geometries of Plot A will be clad in a form of Trencadis, Antonio Gaudi's method of working with glazed ceramic mosaic tiles. The inner facade consists of full height glazing with timber mullions and glazed terracotta curtains. All materials are selected for durability and longevity, to ensure the building is as sustainable as possible in terms of its use of materials and withstanding the sea breeze for decades to come.
