Powell St

This project extended and re-organised an existing bungalow to create additional space. New rooms included a bedroom, utility room and bathroom. To maximise the use of the site and build right up to the angled boundary, a flat roof was necessary. This was designed to sit below the eaves level of the original roof. A buff brick wall subtly contrasts with the existing house and is capped with a simple concrete capping piece.

Minesh Patel Architects were commissioned to redevelop an existing brownfield site in a residential area to create a new family home. The design is informed by the brick and pastel shades of render in the surrounding houses. ⁠We made the most of a tight budget by using everyday low cost building materials and focusing on composition, colour and texture.
