Job Description

Posted 1 month ago

We are a mid-sized, design-driven architecture and urbanism studio rooted in the culture of contemporary city-building. Our portfolio spans well-crafted interiors, hospitality spaces, large-scale redevelopments, and everything in between—always with a deep commitment to detail, material expression, and contextual storytelling.

As we continue to grow, we are seeking an Architectural Designer who brings strong architectural training with a particular passion and experience in interior projects. This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of architecture and interior design, and who is eager to shape environments that are immersive, expressive, and rooted in place.

As an Architectural Designer, you’ll lead design and documentation for interior-focused projects, ensure technical rigour and design continuity, and support our Associates in delivering thoughtful, context-driven work.

This is an in-studio position in our Toronto office. Remote work is not available for this role.
