DESCRIPTION

"Established in 1992 by Geoffrey Warner, Alchemy’s mission is to make stimulating, engaging, and efficient design accessible to a wide audience. Alchemy’s distinctive approach to architecture and design combines a playful design process, collaborative relationships with clients, and partnerships with builders and fabricators to create a harmonious blend of site, building, and community. The team draws inspiration from art, literature, history, and leading creative thinkers to create alternative and atypical project solutions. Alchemy’s innovative weeHouse prefab system and focus on combining ‘barn tech’ with high tech continue to gain award-winning recognition internationally, as well as locally. 

Warner’s design and building of the first weeHouse for a client in 2003 presaged current popular fascination of ‘tiny houses’, industrial tech, and sustainable living. Alchemy’s weeHouse program has developed since 2003 to illustrate progressive thinking about the luxury of less, an architecture of simplicity, and an efficient but celebratory use of materials.” Alchemy
