The King Alfred project is clearly arousing a great deal of concern.
It might, therefore, be helpful if agreement could be reached regarding what principles should be followed in its construction.
Firstly, its function should take precedence over its appearance. Secondly, its function should seek to meet the felt needs of the majority of the people of Brighton and Hove. Thirdly, as far as existing procedures will permit, these felt needs should be first established as guidance for prospective architects. And lastly, whatever its final appearance, this should not give universal offence to the people of Brighton and Hove.
