SIOR Global is privileged and honoured to welcome our guest speaker
Tom Alexander DipAA ARB RIBA.
Tom is a highly innovative and collaborative architect and strategist, designing projects and creating new narratives across multiple sectors. His experience spans over 20 years with a clear focus on the wellbeing of people and an environmental responsibility with a particular focus on industrial and workplace environments.
He has designed market-changing masterplanning and architectural projects, pioneering and developing the blending of industrial buildings with living and working environments to create a richly mixed and co-located community we often call Hybrids.
Tom’s open minded but highly rigorous approach enables fresh thinking and viable ideas to be explored and pursued, often challenging the accepted norms but always offering new ways of improving the natural and built environment for people and the climate.
He is a regular keynote speaker, panellist and roundtable guest, and a design media commentator including for The Economist and Reuters.
Tom has a keen relationship with architectural education, including support and juror roles at Loughborough University, and as an invited juror previously at the Bartlett UCL.
He has recently been the Chair of the New London Architecture’s (NLA) Industrial and Logistics Expert Panel over a three year period. He is also a founder and trustee of the University Design Forum.
He has just launched a new architectural business, Tom Alexander Design Team, embracing a rapidly changing technology landscape and the favoured agile working patterns of design talent to create a nimble new constellation team structure, echoing the start ups of the tech industry. It follows a personal phase of listening and learning from real estate industry leaders about their best experiences and future needs from architects.
The approach is to start from scratch with 20 years experience for a fresh and valuable service that will benefit people, the planet, our clients and their tenants.
