Encouraging their clients to invest in flexible and adaptable spaces, Thomas Alexander designs spaces which challenge conventional living, enhancing the experience of environments built for the future. The firm’s principal mission is to regularly exceed expectations throughout the design and construction processes, maximising the potential of sites that initially appear limited through innovative design solutions. This mission has remained consistent since Thomas Alexander’s inception, yet the approach has continually evolved so as to achieve the most efficient designs on a constrained budget within a consistently shifting market. The approach is also adjusted for each project, as Thomas Alexander knows that the needs of each client and each site are totally unique, requiring creative thinking to provide tailored solutions. The inimitable details of a design are what truly define great architecture and it is only through collaboration across clients, contractors and designers that the unique and valuable features of a development can be encapsulated in the details, all whilst adhering to budgets and timelines. Therefore, choice of materiality is central to the Thomas Alexander design process and the team works only with people who share their passion for quality craftmanship. Meanwhile, the firm regularly goes the extra mile to secure planning approval on challenging sites previously deemed unviable by conducting a thorough analysis of the site to identify key constraints and analyse how these can be overcome. As a result, Thomas Alexander buildings go through a rigorous design process that utilises the full potential of the site. Collaboration has been a central factor not just to the success of their projects, but also to the growth of Thomas Alexander itself. Constantly being challenged to push their boundaries, the team at Thomas Alexander are looking to build their careers, creating lasting relationships through experience and mentoring programmes. The open and relaxed office environment facilitates discussion and collaboration, not only leading to innovation in architectural and interior design, but in their constantly evolving design ethos that benefits from a great range of perspectives.
