Alejandro Loor (b. Guayaquil, Ecuador) is an architect, educator, and research artist whose practice explores the complex dynamics shaping contemporary environments, particularly in Latin America and the Global South. His work uses speculative design methodologies to examine extractive ecologies, infrastructural systems, and cultural narratives—revealing the often unseen forces and connections underpinning urban life.

Through projects such as Hidden Theatrics, which investigates the concealed labor and infrastructure behind architecture, and Sacrificial Landscapes, which critically addresses the ecological and social impacts of industrial shrimp farming in Ecuador, Alejandro creates tangible scenarios that bridge rigorous research with speculative storytelling. His multidisciplinary approach moves fluidly across mediums—including documentary film, physical installations, and detailed investigative reports—to provoke critical reflection and inspire new ecological and social imaginaries.

Alejandro currently teaches design studios and seminars at SCI-Arc in Los Angeles..
