Episode 139: Alex Symes on the secrets of his success as an award-winning architect and Passive House advocate

Alexander Symes founded his eponymous architecture firm in 2014 with a mission to advance sustainable architecture. The winner of numerous awards, including the Single Dwelling (new) and Best of the Best awards at the 2022 Sustainability awards, Alex has specialist training in the design and delivery of passive houses which we believe offer a pathway towards exceptionally comfortable and healthy homes. In this rather noisy interview, Alex explains the reasons for his continual success and the reasons behind why his practice is heading in its current trajectory.
