Introducing Minal her architectural journey is a tale of evolution and self-discovery.
With years of dedication to refining her skills, burnout and desire for impact, Minal reached a transformative point.

She understood that architecture was about more than just drawings.

Minal’s approach is both personable and meticulous, known for understanding client needs while also challenging conventional practices.
Her passion extends beyond architecture to embracing the great outdoors, arts and crafts, and baking, all part of her personal endeavour to positively influence society while enjoying life.

Mitesh Parmar
Managing Director • Marketing & Operation
BEng, ACIM, TAP.Dip
As a former software engineer and global product manager Mitesh brings his unique skill set to the practice that spans across SME to billion-pound turnover organisations, in the field of business, marketing, and commercial strategy, in areas such as electronics, SaaS, manufacturing and rail.
He has seen challenges and solutions from various sectors giving him a distinct and unique approach to running a business. More so the impact on the work space and the health of its employees. Especially as he himself suffers from a chronic medical health condition himself.
His role focuses on listening to clients, the market and understanding how Wellspace Architects can always be striving to be better and innovative.
Mitesh holds a degree in Electronic & Software Engineering from the University of Leicester, a qualification from the Chartered Institute of Marketing, and a Diploma in Training and Development.
He is also a board of trustee for a local charity called free@last.
Mitesh, on the other hand, has always sought a purposeful life.
This desire was intensified by his personal challenge with Ulcerative Colitis, diagnosed during his early university years.
A pivotal moment came with redundancy, it was a turning point. He knew there was more to life than contributing to the success of large corporations.
A series of experiences, from medical struggles to diverse commercial roles, culminated in a determination to make a meaningful difference.
Wellspace Architects® was established from these experiences.
Leveraging Minal’s diverse expertise and her recognition as a WELL Accredited Professional, together with Mitesh’s business savvy and entrepreneurial drive, we embarked on our impactful mission.
