alex webber, architectural lead

“People ignore design that ignores people” is the mantra that drives Alex’s approach and aspirations in design. Engaging in responsive and tactile methods, he strives to find a balance between crafted, vernacular and responsive, forward thinking design work. Raised with blue-collar Midwest roots, his childhood was surrounded by hands-on experience in construction and inventiveness, with his family trades such as home building and art history. Alex is always looking for balance in design and opportunities for weaving creative narratives from the largest scales of urban design to the minute details of furniture creation.

Alex began his studies in Indiana at Ball State University where he graduated with a Bachelor of Environmental Sciences in 2014. After graduation, he answered his call to the west in Oregon while completing his Masters in Urban Architecture from the University of Oregon’s Portland campus. These diverse academic studies continued to push his design for unique learning towards Bozeman in 2016 where he has worked at local residential firms for 8 years acting as project manager, bringing his various experiences and passion for environmental stewardship.
