Senior Interiors Architect/Designer

The Senior Interiors Architect/Designer is an integral part of the design team. Woodhull’s goal is for interiors to inform a project’s architecture as much as the architecture informs the interiors. The Senior Interiors Architect will be an experienced architect or designer who works diligently toward designing the highest quality interiors and moves intelligently toward bringing that design to fruition.

• Together with the architecture team, work philosophically and pragmatically toward a vision of how the project’s interior architecture relates to its surrounding landscape, proposed architecture, client needs, sustainable strategies and a firm-wide goal of delivering forward thinking design.
• Take a lead role in selection of interior materials, finishes, fixtures, furnishings and lighting. The Interior Architect/Designer should feel comfortable championing design decisions that benefit the interior through specific compatibility with the  architecture of the project.
