Minesh Patel BArch (Hons) MArch PGDip RIBA ARB
Minesh studied architecture at the University of Nottingham where he completed his Parts I, II and III. He has a special interest in housing, with his master’s thesis exploring low cost and sustainable housing typologies.
He previously worked for Glenn Howells Architects in Birmingham for five years, helping to deliver a variety of high-profile arts, education, residential and office projects in the UK including a new 1,700 home island neighborhood in East London for developer Ballymore and the ‘Paradise’ masterplan for developer Argent, in the civic core of Birmingham City Centre.
Most recently he worked for the RIBA Royal Gold Medal winning practice O’Donnell and Tuomey architects in Ireland where he was Project Architect on the UCC Student Hub project. The new student centre involved the sensitive restoration and extension of a historic building at the heart of the University College Cork campus and has been nominated for an EU Mies award.
Upon returning from Ireland, he set-up his practice, Minesh Patel Architects with the intention of making thoughtful, highly crafted projects with a focus on social purpose.

Testimonials
“We spoke to a number of architects for help with our bungalow refurbishment. We were drawn to Minesh's enthusiasm for our project and his impressive range of experience. A project like this can be very stressful, however we felt relaxed and constantly reassured. It is evident he is passionate about his work and we'd be happy to work with him again in the future. Highly recommended!”
G THOMAS
“I've worked with many Architects over the last few years but few have been as easy to work with as Minesh. I found him really reliable, hardworking and knowledgeable and will DEFINITELY be hiring him in the future! Highly recommended!”
M RAI
“The experience and proven capability of Minesh in previous big developments and designs gave me confidence that he would be ideal for the project. I am not a builder or property developer, so I needed someone I could trust to get it right first time and who was very reasonably priced . I was not disappointed.”

Our Values
Good Design
Our aim as an architects practice is to improve lives through good design. We do this by working closely with a range of clients from homeowners to developers who share our aspirations to create high quality architecture. We seek to form positive relationships and develop imaginative solutions which add value and delight users.
Environment
Low carbon design informs our design approach for every project. Our architecture seeks to reduce both ‘in-use’ costs and embodied energy. Sustainable architecture is synonymous with good design. It involves harnessing the natural features of a site and existing conditions. We also try to draw upon local materials and construction techniques to create architecture which is contextual and rooted in its surroundings.

FAQ
Do I need an architect?
All building projects can be challenging but also an extremely rewarding process. A Cannock architect can be a valuable guide to provide practical assistance to ensure your project meets your requirements.

How do I choose the right Cannock architect?
Choosing the right Cannock architect is essential to ensure the success of your project. Not all architects will be suitable, for example, some may specialise in certain types of projects such as commercial buildings or schools for example. Allowing plenty of time to choose your Cannock architect is essential so you know that their design approach and style suits you. Getting recommendations from family and friends is a good idea also and talking to them about their experiences will help you choose the right Cannock architect. Look online at archiect’s websites to see examples of their work. Social media accounts such as Pinterest and Instagram can also be helpful to find architects in Cannock.

How much do architects in Cannock charge?
The cost of your Cannock project will depend on the nature of the project and the service you require from your Cannock architect. For simple, straightforward projects, architects can offer a fixed fee. If your project in Cannock is a simple extension for example, prices for planning drawings would start at £600. Where full architectural services are required we charge a percentage fee. This is recommended for more bespoke projects in Cannock and where assistance is required from conception to completion. If the scope of your project in Cannock is unknown, we can also offer a time-charge fee. This is where a pre-agreed rate is paid.
