Architects and Interior Designers

We believe hospitality is not built — it is composed. Thoughtfully. Sensitively. Around people, time, and place.

Whether it’s a restaurant that feels like a second home, a boutique retreat tucked into nature, or a culinary studio designed for collaboration — every space tells a story. And behind each one is a designer who understands that form is never just aesthetic, but deeply functional and emotional.

We are building a discreet network of experienced architects and spatial designers who work at the intersection of hospitality, food, and experience. This is an invitation to join that circle.

The Role

You will work on projects across the hospitality spectrum — from destination restaurants and boutique hotels to homestays, culinary spaces, and new-format environments. Each assignment is different — but all share one common thread: founders and operators looking to build with intent.

Your role is to translate their vision into spaces that work — operationally, emotionally, and aesthetically. You’ll collaborate with founders, chefs, and project teams to design environments that feel as considered behind the scenes as they do to the guest.

Your Contribution

• Lead or advise on architecture and interior design for hospitality-driven spaces.
• Translate intent into spatial narratives — with flow, light, function, and feeling at the core.
• Collaborate with technical consultants: MEP, kitchen planning, structural, and compliance teams.
• Design with real-world operation in mind — from circulation and zoning to backend functionality.
• Deliver drawings, layouts, material palettes, renders, and technical documentation as needed.
• Balance storytelling, systems, and scale — always anchored in purpose and restraint.

What We’re Looking For

• Minimum 10 years of architectural or interior design experience.
• A portfolio that shows depth in hospitality, food, or experience-focused spaces.
• Fluency in technical requirements — ventilation, drainage, fire safety, and operational zoning.
• Past collaborations with chefs, restaurateurs, hoteliers, or property developers.
• A design voice that is calm, intelligent, and quietly confident.

Preferred

• Experience working with independent brands or founder-led projects.
• Adaptive reuse, remote locations, or regional formats.
• Understanding of foodservice infrastructure and guest-centric design.
• Comfort with site visits or remote collaboration depending on project geography.

To Express Interest

Please send across:

• Your portfolio or studio website
• A short introduction or design philosophy
• Selected projects relevant to food, hospitality, or experience-led environments
