This story belongs to Alexander Molkentin, the founder of Fernhill Build Studio, who has dedicated his life to the art of construction and design. Through his unique blend of experience, skill, and creativity, Alex has transformed Fernhill Build Studio into a beacon of premium residential construction.
A Legacy of Craftsmanship
Alexander Molkentin's journey into the world of construction began long before Fernhill Build Studio was conceived. Growing up, Alex was immersed in the construction industry, heavily influenced by his father, a finish carpenter and general contractor, and his grandfather, an immigrant carpenter. This early exposure instilled in him a profound respect for craftsmanship and a deep understanding of the nuances of construction.
From a young age, Alex spent countless hours on job sites, observing and learning from his father and grandfather. This hands-on experience provided him with invaluable insights into the intricacies of construction, from the precise techniques of finish carpentry to the comprehensive responsibilities of general contracting. These formative years shaped his approach to building, emphasizing quality, attention to detail, and a dedication to delivering exceptional results.
From Siteworks to Design
Before founding Fernhill Build Studio, Alex successfully ran a company specializing in siteworks within the commercial and municipal sectors. This phase of his career honed his skills in large-scale project management, complex logistical coordination, and high standards of professionalism. However, his true passion lay in the creative aspect of construction, the art of transforming a vision into reality.
This yearning for creative fulfillment led Alex to New Zealand, where he spent several years reconnecting with his love for design and craftsmanship. The serene landscapes and innovative architectural styles of New Zealand provided the perfect backdrop for this period of rediscovery. During this time, Alex refined his design sensibilities and developed a renewed sense of purpose, ready to bring a fresh perspective to the construction industry.
