The practice’s works are regularly featured in global design publications. Alex also founded Cumulus , a tech start-up that provides ‘an immersive digital archive of photos, videos and files in a memory cloud that clients can share with loved ones’, a sort-of archive of the virtual, a digital ossuary, if you will. For an architect, this is the ultimate Latourian-turn, I guess. Alex can be found on PARTISANS’ website , on LinkedIn and Instagram .
