Job description

kevin daly Architects (kdA) has an exciting position for an Architect or Designer to join our design practice.

We are a leading architectural design firm based in Los Angeles with active projects in California, recognized for our extensive portfolio of public and institutional facilities that advance award-winning contemporary design in everyday life.

kdA is a firm with a focus on four types of work: Civic, Institutional, Housing (affordable/residential) and Workplace. The kdA design studio has substantial shop facilities; model-making is central to our design process and supports the studio’s focus on craft, construction systems, and material research. Our process highlights the interrelationship of research and fabrication, material and form, sustainability and livability, and we are looking to hire someone with shared perspectives.

We are looking for individuals who are curious, passionate, articulate and who want to learn and develop. While we expect familiarity with Revit, we hire people that have technical skills as well as a practical approach to design and construction. Understanding history, typology and the formal characteristics of architecture is as important as the practical skills to develop and document the projects we work on.

• 5-7 years’ experience
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Architecture
• Well-rounded design and documentation skills
• All projects in the office are documented in Revit - proficiency is expected
