Default Lining up data from concatenation

A1 = 1234
A2 = 5

B1 = project 1
B2 = project 2

If I do this in C1
=concatentate(A1," ",B1)
I get
1234 project1
for C1. That's fine but doing the same thing for row 2 gets me
5 project 2

I need a way to do this (without a macro because I'm totally helpless when
it comes to macros) so that Column C lines up everything in Column A AND
everything in column B so the data is in 1 cell and the "p" in project lines
up vertically no matter how many characters are in the number in Column A.
The data HAS TO be in a single cell - no merging cells and changing border
colors to make it appear that way.
I think I need something in my concatenate that assigns a set number of
spaces to the data in Column A and concatenates Column B data starting in
the same position every time.
But how?
