Creating inspiring learning environments takes more than good design — it takes an understanding of how spaces shape wellbeing, behaviour, and achievement.
Who We Are
Architecture Social is a specialist recruitment consultancy working with architecture and interior design practices that deliver outstanding education projects across schools, universities, and libraries. We regularly brief with studios known for their commitment to designing learning environments that genuinely make a difference. Our relationships mean we know when teams are expanding before roles go public.
What Our Clients Typically Ask For
Across the education-focused practices we work with, recurring requirements for mid-weight interior designers include:
• Three to five years of experience with interior design packages for education or community buildings
• Confident colour and material strategies that balance durability, safety, and visual inspiration
• Furniture layout and specification experience for classrooms, breakout zones, and library spaces
• Familiarity with BIM workflows and production of detailed drawing packages in Revit or AutoCAD
• Understanding of inclusive design principles and age-appropriate environmental considerations
• Experience attending stakeholder engagement workshops with teachers, students, and governors
• Awareness of BB103 area guidelines and DfE output specifications is a valued advantage
If your work reflects a genuine commitment to creating spaces where people learn and thrive, we want to hear from you.
