Who We Are
Architecture Social is a recruitment partner and professional community for architects, interior designers—and the specialists who elevate every finish. Our studio clients rely on FF&E Designers to source, specify and coordinate everything from bespoke joinery to last-layer styling. They brief us early—often before a role is advertised—so we keep an active shortlist of materials-savvy creatives ready to step in.

What our clients typically ask for
3–6 years’ FF&E experience on hospitality, workplace, residential or mixed-use projects

A portfolio brimming with mood boards, sample trays, detailed schedules and on-site installation shots

Confident sourcing and supplier-negotiation skills—fabrics, case goods, lighting, accessories and artwork (plus an eye for sustainability credentials)

Mastery of specification software or spreadsheets, with immaculate item codes, finishes descriptions and cost tracking

Proficiency in SketchUp, Revit or AutoCAD for plans/elevations, and Adobe Creative Suite for client-facing boards and presentations

A collaborative, deadline-driven attitude—comfortable liaising with procurement teams, contractors and upholsterers to keep deliveries on programme

Why Register With Architecture Social
