Conner Thackara

Conner designs a range of projects at FXCollaborative, and has particular expertise in architectural visualization. He has extensive experience working on projects that utilize innovative construction technologies and approaches to adaptive reuse. Conner's diverse portfolio spans a variety of scales and typologies, from small-scale residential to complex master plans.

Growing up, Conner's interests in drawing, graphics, and computers led him to first explore the field of architecture, which he viewed as a combination of the three. He went on to pursue a Bachelor of Architecture at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Since then, he has worked as both an architectural designer and as a freelance architectural visualization practitioner, where his work focused on bridging the gap between BIM models and design visions.

Conner views architecture as a unique combination of design and place. He is adamant in his belief that emerging design and construction technologies have the ability to hugely impact the world, and is determined to incorporate these innovations, particularly mass timber, whenever possible. With an appreciation for the positive impact a building can have on its community, he is fascinated by design interventions that incite positive change.
