In this episode of Com d'Archi, meet Kevin Alter, an American architect and inspiring figure at the helm of Alterstudio, an agency based in Austin, Texas. Through a rich, sensitive, and generous conversation, he shares his dual vocation as a builder and teacher, revealing a vision of architecture as an everyday art, a dialogue with place, and a profoundly human act.Steeped in modernism, his approach aims to create fair living environments that resonate with the landscape, the seasons, and the people who use them. At Alterstudio Architecture, each project is the result of passionate, meticulous, and context-driven teamwork, whether in Texas or faraway places like Niseko. This collaborative approach, combined with rigorous design and a keen eye for detail, shapes spaces that illuminate everyday life.Kevin Alter also talks about his admiration for the elegance of French architecture, his love of books, craftsmanship, fashion, and his optimism. Far from formalism or pure technical performance, he advocates a generous architecture, guided by listening, respect for others, and the desire to collectively elevate our living environment.Between aesthetic demands, educational commitment, and unapologetic humanism, this portrait of an architect in search of accuracy offers us a rare insight into the DNA of a studio deeply rooted in modernist ethics... and humanity.Teaser image © alterstudioSound engineering : Ali Zogheib____If you like the podcast do not hesitate:. to subscribe so you don't miss the next episodes,. to leave us stars and a comment :-),. to follow us on Instagram @comdarchipodcast to find beautiful images, always chosen with care, so as to enrich your view on the subject.Nice week to all of you !
