Draft:Alex Bozikovic

Alex Bozikovic is a Canadian journalist, architecture critic and author. He is the Architecture Critic for The Globe and Mail and an author of three books. He writes about architecture, urban planning, landscape architecture and politics. He has written for other publications including Architectural Record.

His book 305 Lost Buildings of Canada, written with Raymond Biesinger, was a national bestseller.

He is co-author and co-editor of the book House Divided , which unpacks the affordability crisis in Toronto and discusses zoning reform.

His first book, Toronto Architecture: A City Guide, is a new edition of the comprehensive guidebook to the city's architecture. Robert Fulford, in the National Post, praised the book, saying: "Bozikovic offers sharp opinions and educated gossip... in the readable prose of this City Guide, as in the 23 walking tours it suggests, you can feel a sense of purpose."

He is an instructor at the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape and Design.

He was the winner of the 2019 RAIC President's Medal for Media in Architecture. A jury report said, "Bozikovic’s work consistently situates architectural projects in a social context, giving readers an understanding of why design matters. He examines a wide variety of building types, including some that typically escape critical examination, and always from the perspective of how the architecture affects the experience of the inhabitants. Every column has, at its heart, the complexity of architecture as a profession and as a discipline. He advocates for good architecture and doesn’t shy away from controversy. His writing is clear, free of jargon and unfailingly perceptive."
