Alec Mahar

Alec Mahar is an architectural designer based in Dallas, Texas, working on large-scale projects within a global practice. His work operates at the intersection of digital modeling, fabrication workflows, and complex building systems, with a particular focus on translating conceptual ideas into built form. He has contributed to major projects including the Diriyah Gate Arena, where he focused on digital fabrication and documentation workflows, and the Cleveland Browns Stadium project, where he is part of the seating bowl team, engaging in coordination and experiential design within a highly complex NFL venue environment.

Alongside professional practice, Alec maintains an independent creative discipline spanning bonsai cultivation, material studies, and performance-based explorations of space and context. His work is guided by a belief that there is no absence of context, and that architecture should engage both the physical and perceptual dimensions of human experience.

He is particularly interested in how emerging tools and interdisciplinary thinking can be combined to create more responsive, meaningful environments that support human wellbeing.
