Job description

We are looking for an architect with 3-5 years of experience who is passionate about design and has a genuine interest in luxury residential architecture and villa projects. The role calls for someone who can move comfortably between design thinking and technical resolution, from developing a concept and exploring a façade to resolving a detail and seeing it through on site.

Responsibilities

• Developing architectural concepts and design proposals for luxury villas and residences.
• Translating design intent into precise plans, sections, elevations and detailed drawings.
• Developing architectural details with a strong understanding of materials, construction and craftsmanship.
• Coordinating with structural, MEP, landscape, interior and other consultants.
• Preparing and managing detailed drawing packages through various stages of the project.
• Attending site visits and working closely with contractors and consultants to resolve design and execution issues.
• Reviewing drawings and site work to ensure that the design intent and quality are maintained.
• Taking ownership of assigned projects and deliverables from design development through execution.
• Working closely with junior architects and contributing to the overall design process of the studio.

Qualifications:

• 3–5 years of professional architectural experience.
• A strong interest in luxury residential and villa architecture.
• A refined design sensibility and an appreciation for proportion, materiality and detail.
• Strong architectural drawing and detailing skills.
• A good understanding of construction and how design translates into built form.
• The ability to think independently, take ownership and solve problems creatively.
• An eye for quality and a willingness to push a design beyond the expected.
• Good communication and coordination skills.

Software

• Experience with SketchUp, Rhino, Lumion, Photoshop, Revit or other relevant design software will be an advantage.

Beyond experience and software skills, we are looking for someone who is curious, design-driven and detail-oriented. Someone who notices the way a material meets another, understands the importance of proportion, enjoys drawing and detailing, and is equally comfortable discussing a design idea as they are resolving it on site. If you are looking to work on distinctive, high-end residential architecture and be part of a studio where design quality and attention to detail matter, we would like to hear from you.
