The Alexander
Contemporary Galleries & ap’Art Hotel
The Alexander reimagines Glasgow’s historic Egyptian Halls as a hybrid cultural destination integrating contemporary galleries, immersive exhibition spaces and an ap’Art Hotel within the city centre.
The proposal combines hospitality, culture and public interaction within a single layered environment, balancing public exhibition spaces with short-stay residential accommodation.
Through a sequence of interconnected programmes, visitors move between gallery spaces, social environments and private residence, creating a continuous spatial experience throughout the building.
