AlexHaw

Alex trained as an architect and eventually set up his own award-winning art/architecture practice, atmos; their tagline sounds like Fox&Badge: “merging meaning sensuality.” His Princeton Masters thesis project used dance music data to create a wild office-nightclub hybrid, splashed with sweaty bodies; the trajectory was always clear. Atmos created a range of wild, organic spaces and installations that sought to be beautiful, welcoming, human-centred, and full of movement and emotion. 

On the side, Alex ran Latitudinal Cuisine, hosting a weekly co-created community for almost 10 years. Gradually he began to shift focus to explore the deeper and wilder ways in which we might all connect. In 2019, after a challenging experience building a large installation at Burning Man, he realised his path lay more in events than installations, community than construction, and now explores all the beautiful ways humans can express and unleash themselves through gatherings and rituals.

He has been a Studio Master at the Architectural Association, Cambridge Univeristy & the Royal College of Art, a writer and columnist, and international lecturer. He played the lead psycho in Chris Nolan’s 1st film, Following.
