Christopher Alexander, né le 4 octobre 1936 à Vienne en Autriche et mort le 17 mars 2022, est un anthropologue et un architecte américain d'origine autrichienne qui a retrouvé et perfectionné la théorie des Pattern languages. Ce concept de pattern, traduisible au mieux en motif, mais aussi en modèle ou type, permet des applications dans tous les processus de conception de formes dans les arts aussi bien qu'en ingénierie. Il a d'abord été utilisé dans le domaine de l'anthropologie et de l'histoire de l'art (les modèles culturels de Margaret Mead), puis dans celui du design (les types architecturaux), ensuite en informatique. Sa théorie des patrons de conception ou des types culturels remet en question l'idée qu'il puisse y avoir une création ou une invention originale et individuelle dans le domaine de la conception.
