About

The story so far.

Six months after launching, the expected pipeline disappeared.

Alex founded Studio Sutton in August 2019, aged 29. When the pandemic removed close to a year of expected work, the studio pivoted towards projects in Oslo and Stockholm and built an international practice across the UK, Europe and the US.

Before Studio Sutton, he spent nearly eight years at SevilPeach, working with Vitra, Kvadrat and the Dutch Government and helping shape the original Spaces workplace concept.
