Model 024_Prince Street Car Park – Miniature Concrete Model
Hand-cast in fine concrete. Shaped by memory.

Some buildings wear their function plainly and still manage to be striking. Prince Street Car Park in Bristol is one of those rare examples where utility becomes a piece of the city’s architectural fabric. Its ribbed concrete façade and strong horizontal decks give it a sculptural quality, standing quietly by the harbourside since the 1960s.

This model focuses on the clarity of the design. The regular bays, the repeating lines, the texture of the concrete, all of these are elements that make it distinctive. Shrinking it down meant keeping the rhythm intact and capturing some of the tiniest textured details in concrete so the model feels like a direct fragment of the real structure.

A small cast of a car park that’s more than the sum of its parts.

Features
• Solid cast concrete, individually hand-poured
• 4cm high, 7cm wide, 5cm deep (approx)
• Laser-etched cork base with building name
• Comes gift-boxed for the perfect concrete gift
• Designed, modelled, and finished in the UK

Made for those who notice the beauty in everyday architecture.

This model captures a building most people pass without a second thought, but for some, it’s a familiar landmark, full of quiet character.

Building Information

Location: Bristol, UK
Architect: City Engineer’s Department
Completed: 1966
Status: Still in use
Brief Overview:
Prince Street Car Park was built as part of Bristol’s post-war redevelopment, serving the city centre and harbourside. Its Brutalist design is defined by deep concrete ribs, strong horizontal lines, and a functional honesty that has made it a quiet but enduring presence in the city’s architectural landscape.



Please note:
My concrete sculptures are individually hand cast in solid concrete. This means that each piece will have distinctive markings and minor blemishes due to air bubbles in the concrete. This is a natural part of the material and will mean that no two pieces are ever exactly the same.

The detail is excellent and it and the companion piece I ordered arrived well-packed each in its own sturdy case, set into protective foam. Highly recommend!
