1823 CE
The architect John Nash has been employed by the Prince Regent from 1815 to develop his Marine Pavilion in Brighton, originally designed by Henry Holland, into an Oriental-style pleasure palace.
The exterior is based on Mughal architecture, giving the building its exotic form; the chinoiserie style interiors are largely the work of Frederick Crace.
Nash had finished his work on the pavilion by 1822; it is now transformed into the Royal Pavilion.
