…at the time based in Berlin, Germany, and focused on the segmentation of communities. Then came Paul, who was studying architecture in Copenhagen at the time and was freaking out because Alex, "The God," was in the store. I had no clue until Paul showed me a picture of him, and I thought, "Ah, beanie/curly hair guy." Since then, we’ve run into each other multiple times. When we did a pop-up at BAM Berlin on Ritter Strasse, he happened to have his office in the very same building back then.
To clarify, Alex works as an independant consultant across cultural research, strategic design, and creative direction. He has been the gateway to many amazing introductions and someone I have enjoyed many meals with. Today, Alex "The God" resides in Paris with his partner in crime, Asap G!

What do you do for Recreation?
Run, smoke indica, listen to music, go to exhibitions, read. If possible in that order
If you were to do something other than what you do for a living today, what would that be?
I’d probably do something with wood, or circus or food - but I think it will come
What was the last gift you got for yourself?
Love that q! I can’t remember so it’s about time! Might go get something today. Been thinking about getting some jewellery
What was the last gift somebody gave you?
I got a notebook from my mom when she visited me here in Paris; I love it
What is your biggest vice, and how do you deal with it?
Probably alcohol or weed or that I like to do both at the same time; but maybe more deep would say that I like to do things my way and I’m frustrated if they don’t. How I deal with it is trusting myself that at the right time I do the right things, wether that’s going sober for a while or try to rattle the chair and do things that make me uncomfortable
How do you navigate through difficult situations?
Just try and go right through it and get enjoy everything that comes with that it if that makes sense. Also I’m very blessed to have Gila by my side, nothing can happen to me when I go home.
Name one of your favourite people in the world and why this person is one of them?
Oh I think the answer above answers this quite nicely
What do you do to stay/get in shape?
I run and stretch a couple times a week and if the stars align play football with a Paris crew which is a life hack because it’s fun and exercise in one.
What was your proudest moment and why?
I think when I got my mom a car, but also looking back I’m proud that I left home because that’s like the start of everything
Which city is cooking you the best meal and where?
Because you’re asking me I have to think of Copenhagen and me and Gila having a drink at rouge oysters and then dinner at Jah Izakaya. Perfect
