Senior Interior Designer

This role exists because the studio’s work sits firmly in retail environments, but is driven by ideas rather than just execution. Projects span retail spaces, hospitality, and brand-led environments, where the challenge is not just designing how something looks, but defining how a brand translates into a physical space. That thinking currently sits with a small number of senior creatives. As project volume grows, there’s a need for someone who can step into that space and contribute at a conceptual level, not just deliver what’s already been decided.

This role is about doing exactly that. You would work on early-stage concept development for retail and spatial projects, translating brand strategy into physical environments. The focus is on shaping direction, building narratives, and ensuring ideas hold up spatially, not just visually. You’ll still be grounded in interiors. Plans, layouts, and spatial thinking matter. Vectorworks is a core tool here. But the expectation is that you think beyond execution and contribute to the creative direction of projects from the start. You won’t be brought in to purely execute someone else’s vision. You’ll be expected to shape it.

In the first few months, success looks like contributing strong, relevant ideas to live retail projects and demonstrating clear brand sensitivity in how those ideas translate into space. Over time, you’ll be trusted to lead or support concept development, helping define retail environments that are both creatively strong and spatially viable. Your work will influence how projects are experienced, not just how they look.

This role suits someone who is genuinely rooted in retail and spatial design but enjoys the thinking side of the work. Someone comfortable in early-stage ambiguity, where direction is still forming, and confident contributing ideas that connect brand and space. It won’t suit everyone. If you prefer clearly defined briefs and delivery-focused roles, this will feel unclear. If your experience sits purely in visuals or 3D without strong spatial understanding, this isn’t the right fit. And if you’re not interested in shaping ideas and narrative, you’ll find it difficult to add value.

What matters here is your ability to think spatially and conceptually, not just produce outputs. Strong Vectorworks capability is required, as a tool to explore and communicate ideas in space. Experience in brand-led retail environments is essential. Cinema 4D is useful, but secondary.

What makes this role attractive for the right person is proximity to the core of the work. You’ll be involved in shaping retail environments from the outset, working closely with senior creatives and directors on projects where brand and space are tightly connected. If you want to be involved in defining retail experiences, not just delivering them, it’s worth a conversation.
