About Sanctuary

Sanctuary builds nature - led, wellness - centered communities that feel alive. Our first 135-acre residential community in the Texas Hill Country is designed with:

• Non-toxic materials
• Clean water and filtration systems
• EMF-conscious design
• 135 acres of preserved land and eco - sensitive planning

We are a global team (spread across 8 countries) of designers, architects, engineers, and dreamers building spaces that restore and inspire. For us, it’s not just where people live - it’s how they live.

Our vision is to bring Sanctuary to major cities around the world: healthy, sovereign communities that sit on the edges of every modern metropolis.

About The Role

You’ll set the design bar for every Sanctuary home. That means how light enters a room, how a house sits on the land, and how materials and nature work together to support wellbeing.

This is a hands‑on senior role, not a management one. You’ll take projects from first sketch through design development, then partner with our architecture leads, BIM team, and U.S. consultants to carry that intent into construction.

Here’s what makes it different. At a large firm, design direction usually comes from above. Here, it comes from you. We need someone who takes a brief, pushes it further, and defends the call with confidence. If you thrive on ownership and move fast when priorities shift, you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Own

• Lead concept and design development. Shape residential buildings and community spaces from concept through DD: massing, floor plans, elevations, and material palettes.
• Turn wellness into buildable design. Translate our nature-led principles into clear, practical solutions. Test options quickly, then bring a clear recommendation.
• Design for the land. Respond to the site, landscape, light, and climate of the Texas Hill Country, and help shape the 135-acre master plan and future sites.
• Set and hold the standard. Build design guidelines, material libraries, and reference standards. Review the wider team’s work and give clear, constructive feedback.
• Present and defend your work. Create sketches, renderings, and presentations for leadership, partners, and buyers. Explain your decisions to technical and non-technical audiences alike.
