01 / ABOUT

Plans are only
the beginning.

My practice sits between architectural clarity and engineering discipline. I develop concepts that can survive contact with structure, budgets, regulations and the everyday rituals of the people who occupy them.

02 / EXPERTISE

A structural
way of seeing.

From first sketch to coordinated documentation, every decision is tested against light, load, movement and long-term use.

01

Concept & Spatial Strategy

Site narratives, massing studies, circulation logic and design concepts that turn constraints into architectural opportunities.

01
02

Technical Development

Material systems, facade thinking, coordination and detail development with a focus on buildability and performance.

02
03

Urban & Adaptive Reuse

Context-sensitive interventions that connect existing fabric with new programs, improving buildings without erasing their stories.

03
04

Consulting

Expert guidance on architecture and best practices.

03 / SELECTED WORK

Three studies in
place-making.

A selection of projects showing how the Alex Mercer approach moves from a bold spatial idea to disciplined architectural resolution.

Residential / Pune / 2025

Terrace House, a folded roofscape for light, shade and monsoon air.

Three interlocking volumes create a private courtyard while a continuous roof plane folds upward to catch northern light and channel rainwater.

Civic / Jaipur / 2024

Courtyard Archive

A climate-first cultural archive organized around a shaded public room.

TypeScript, Docker, Kubernetes

DevOps Dashboard

Unified deployment and monitoring dashboard.

04 / PROCESS

From linework
to lived space.

A clear process keeps ambitious design grounded, collaborative and ready to build.

Read the site

Brief, context, climate, movement and constraints become the first layer of the drawing.

Shape the proposition

Test massing, section and circulation until the architectural idea has both character and logic.

Make it buildable

Coordinate structure, systems, materials and details without losing the original spatial ambition.

Stay close to the work

Support approvals, tender coordination and site decisions so the built result stays faithful to the design intent.
