David Langley
Practice owner
David Langley founded Alter Office in 2019, bringing his design expertise to some of Brisbane’s premier blue-chip suburbs and the Sunshine Coast. Embracing the mantra of elegance without arrogance, David believes in the power of a project team dedicated to delivering your dream home above all else. He understands that taking the project seriously, but not oneself, can transform a potentially stressful undertaking into an enjoyable journey.
With nearly two decades of experience, David has crafted over 30 beautiful homes for clients spanning from Cairns to Sydney, contributing to the success of renowned architectural practices. During his tenure as a senior project architect at Shaun Lockyer Architects, he led the design and documentation of some of the practice’s most intricate homes, including Dilkera, Glenrae, and Oxlade.
In his role at SLa, David was responsible for translating hand-drawn concepts into expressive 3D forms, selecting and composing exterior and interior materials, designing and documenting cabinetry, coordinating essential consultants, documenting designs for construction, and integrating landscape architect concepts. His collaborative approach extended to working closely with builders and clients to ensure the realisation of the intended design.
David takes pride in building lasting friendships with the entire project team, a sentiment reflected in Alter Office’s list of return and referred clients. Whether discussing your project, navigating the challenges of raising teenagers, or sharing thoughts on the Broncos’ premiership prospects, David is always eager for a chat.
