• Design and specify custom furniture, finishes, and experiential elements aligned with project storytelling.
• Direct art curation and coordinate bespoke installations.
• Produce detailed construction documents and technical drawings to support implementation.
• Partner closely with leadership to refine concepts and ensure design intent is realized in built form.
• Coordinate across disciplines to deliver cohesive, high-impact environments.

Experience and Qualifications

• 8–12 years of experience in highly creative, concept-driven environments (themed design, hospitality, entertainment, or commercial projects).
• Strong background in storytelling, concept ideation, and translating narrative into physical space.
• Proficiency in Revit, Enscape, and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign); Rhino a plus.
• Exceptional 3D visualization and rendering skills.
• Experience with custom fabrication, FF&E, and material storytelling.
• Strong understanding of space planning, codes, and consultant coordination.
• Ability to clearly communicate design ideas through diagrams, presentations, and documentation.
• Bachelor’s degree in Interior Design or related field required.
• Ability to travel as needed.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills.

Preferred:
• Experience with design-build or large-scale, highly experiential projects.
• LEED or WELL accreditation.
• Progress toward NCIDQ certification or architectural licensure.

Salary and Benefits

• Hybrid work environment (3 days in-office, 2 days remote).
• Flexible working hours.
• Comprehensive benefits including health, dental, and 401(k).
• Paid time off and holidays.
• Paid parental leave and volunteer time.
• Professional development support, including accreditation reimbursement.
• Collaborative, social studio culture with events and team programming.
• Access to advanced design tools, including VR and a fully equipped model shop.
