Your Creative Process:

Designers are given the freedom and space to play, there are client deliverables to meet within the Creative Process but how you get to these is up to you.

As a Junior Designer, you will be contributing to the entire lifecycle of a project, from concept through to completion, working directly into a Lead Designer and working closely with the wider Design Team, Production Team, and fabrication partners. This role requires a conceptual thinker that can confidently articulate their ideas and bring them to life in a diverse range of spaces.


The Creative Process:

Phase 1: Discover - Understanding the brief, the client, and the space. Researching themes and narratives to inspire the designs.

Phase 2: Design - Working as part of a team to create concepts derived from the chosen theme for the space. They call these idea cards, they are loose, sketchy, and conceptual. The chosen ideas are then refined further.

Phase 3: Develop - Working as part of a team to develop the chosen ideas, considering materiality and creating fully formed designs ready to be artworked, fabricated, and installed.
