Tricia Patel is a partner and leads one of PTE’s design workshops delivering projects from concept to completion, especially for large residential-led regeneration projects.

Her enthusiasm, and talent for listening, can draw from clients and user groups a deep understanding of what they really want from their project. She is skilled at using the insights gained to produce successful outcomes:

Tricia has over 28 years’ experience in the housing, mixed-use and regeneration sectors, and has both designed and delivered a series of successful and award-winning projects, ranging from large-scale masterplans to infill sites and refurbishments. She has planned and led numerous community engagement programmes, both on housing estates and in established mixed-tenure neighbourhoods.

Tricia is also one of the practice’s ambassadors for young people and has won the Junior Open House Architectural Mentor award.
