London-based landscape and architecture studio Untitled Practice ( UP ) has completed the redevelopment of Valley Gardens , a new linked park system in the heart of Brighton . Extending from St Peter ’ s Church through to the Royal Pavilion , Valley Gardens joins up an extensive 1.5km sequence of public park spaces from The Level to Brighton Palace Pier , creating significant new integrated hard and soft public realm for the benefit of residents and visitors . The project encompasses a new setting and square for St Peter ’ s Church , new lawns , perennial gardens , wildflower meadows , and extensive tree planting , as well as the National Elm Collection .
