## Resource

This week on The H-Train Show, we welcome Alexander Josephson, co-founder of PARTISANS, an internationally recognized architecture and design studio known for transforming iconic spaces and reimagining how people experience the world around them. Alexander has helped shape major projects including the Hearn Generating Station, Union Station, Ontario Place, and the Grotto Sauna. His work explores the intersection of architecture, technology, culture, and human emotion. Following a deeply personal experience during the COVID-19 pandemic, Alexander launched Cumulus, a platform dedicated to preserving memories and honoring the legacies of loved ones. Drawing on his background in designing meaningful spaces, Cumulus creates a digital home for remembrance and storytelling. Join us as we discuss architecture, innovation, legacy, digital preservation, and why memory, beauty, and disruption all belong in the same conversation.
