• Ensure drawings are technically accurate, coordinated and ready for execution.
• Review drawings prepared by junior designers before issuing them for execution.
• Identify technical issues and resolve them proactively.

3. 3D Visualisation — PRIME RESPONSIBILITY

• Create high-quality 3D models and interior visualisations based on the design concept.
• Develop detailed 3D models for furniture, ceilings, walls, materials and architectural elements.
• Translate design concepts into accurate and visually strong 3D presentations.
• Make revisions quickly based on client and design-team feedback.
• Maintain consistency between 2D drawings, 3D models and final design intent.

4. Team Leadership & Mentoring

• Guide and mentor junior interior designers and interns.
• Allocate tasks and monitor deliverables within the team.
• Review junior designers' drawings, 3D work and presentations.
• Train juniors on technical detailing, drawing standards and design processes.
• Ensure the overall quality of the team's output meets The ART Container's standards.

5. Design & Client Coordination

• Participate in design development and client presentations.
• Understand the design intent and ensure it is maintained through detailed documentation.
• Communicate design decisions clearly with clients and consultants.
• Coordinate with architects, MEP consultants, contractors, vendors and site teams when required.

What We Are Looking For

• 4–7 years of professional experience in interior design.
• Strong command of AutoCAD and 3D software.
• Excellent understanding of technical drawings and interior detailing.
• Strong knowledge of furniture, joinery, materials, ceiling, flooring and construction detailing.
• Ability to independently manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Strong eye for design and attention to detail.
• Ability to identify problems before they reach the site.
• Strong communication and coordination skills.
• Ability to lead, guide and develop junior designers.
• Highly organised with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.
