Architect Studio Singapore

We are Alexis Dornier Makings, an internationally recognised architecture studio known for high-end contemporary projects. In Singapore, we design precise, concept-led architecture shaped by material discipline and spatial clarity.

About The Studio

architects Singapore

We approach architecture as a process of interpretation, guided by clear rules rather than a fixed stylistic language. Each project is developed through a precise framework where architectural intent, material quality, and spatial logic are central to the brief, allowing complexity to emerge through clarity rather than excess.

The studio is based in Indonesia and works internationally on a select number of high-end projects each year. In Singapore, we engage with clients and developments that operate at a high level of ambition, within rigorous planning, regulatory, and delivery frameworks.

These conditions demand disciplined thinking, technical precision, and architecture that is able to maintain conceptual clarity and long-term value from concept through to realisation.

Areas of Work

modern architect Singapore

Hospitality and Resorts

Contemporary hospitality architecture where experience, operation, and architectural intent are carefully aligned. Projects are developed as coherent systems, balancing spatial sequencing with clarity of structure and use.

Private Residences

High-end private residential architecture developed in response to site, programme, and regulation. Each project prioritises spatial clarity, material quality, and long-term architectural value over repeatable or stylistic solutions.

Details and Interiors

Interior architecture, bespoke elements, and material articulation are conceived as extensions of the core concept, ensuring spatial clarity is maintained from structure to finish. 

Process

Architecture Within Rigorous Urban Frameworks

Architecture in Singapore demands clarity. Projects are shaped by density, regulation, and long-term performance, requiring ideas to remain legible from concept through to execution. Within this context, architecture succeeds through the strength of its underlying logic rather than surface expression.

Our work approaches architecture as a rule-based system. Each project establishes its own internal framework, allowing structure, material, and detail to develop as part of a coherent whole. This clarity supports precision while accommodating the complexity of dense urban conditions.

Rather than pursuing a fixed stylistic identity, architecture is treated as a process of interpretation. Ideas are shaped by context, programme, and ambition, then refined through reduction and control, resulting in work that is both intellectually clear and experientially rich.

This approach allows us to work internationally while maintaining consistency in quality and intent. Each project becomes a specific response, shaped by its moment, place, and purpose, rather than a repetition of form.

Frequently Asked Questions

We work on high-end, non-generic architectural projects where design quality, clarity of intent, and long-term value are central to the brief. These typically include private residential, hospitality, and mixed-use developments operating at a high level of ambition.

No. The studio is based in Indonesia and works internationally. In Singapore, we collaborate on projects where the architectural complexity, regulatory framework, and expectations align with our approach, working closely with local consultants where required.

No. We are selective about the projects we accept. Our work is best suited to clients seeking thoughtful, concept-led architecture rather than standardised or developer-led solutions.

Yes. Many of our projects operate within rigorous planning, zoning, and building control frameworks. We approach regulation as a design condition, using it to inform clarity, structure, and architectural coherence rather than treating it as a limitation.

We remain closely involved from concept through to delivery. Limiting the number of projects we take on allows for sustained attention, depth of thinking, and consistent architectural intent throughout the process.

Our approach is driven by clear architectural systems rather than a fixed visual style. We prioritise authorship, material discipline, and spatial logic, allowing each project to develop as a specific response to its context and ambition.
