Clarendon Place

Clarendon Place is located in Portslade, Brighton. For this project, Balco designed, manufactured and installed 53 bespoke Balco levitate open balcony systems over 2 apartment blocks, in partnership with PMC Construction. 

All 53 of these Balco balconies were identical in design, with vertical bars, steel balustrade, concrete floor tiles and a front falling aluminum soffit panels which allows all excess water drain out of the balconies, resulting in they not flooding. 

Each balcony stack is slightly off set on every floor; this was an architectural preference and a specific design feature requested to give an aesthetically pleasing finish. 

Due to Balco’s Bespoke Levitate system, the Levitate balconies was installed quickly and efficiently, considering the fact that the site was small and therefore restricted the amount of balconies which could be held and constructed there at one time. There was also a huge restriction with storage, as there was none on site, which meant that all balconies had to be manufactured and assembled on the site floor, and then installed straight away.
