Alex grew up on the east coast of Tasmania, I spent a lot of time in nature with family and friends which gave me a love for design and the impact and role it plays in peoples lives and in nature.
The first question I ask our clients is how do you want to feel when in a space or when using a space. I think the two fundamental aspects of architecture are the user experience and the functionality of a space or building. When space provides an experience it makes you feel something, when a space is functional it is simple and easy to use.
Architecture is often described with how it looks, for me if the building makes you feel beautiful then it is beautiful.
A goal of my thinking is to continually try to better understand people and the world they interact in. The combination of these two things for me is architecture.
