About Float Float Studio is a small interior architecture and design studio based in NYC. We work across workplace and commercial interiors, with a hospitality driven approach and a big focus on the details that make a space feel intentional. Our team is small, friendly, and tight. We care about doing great work without burning people out. We are looking for someone who is calm, organized, and genuinely enjoys supporting a small team.

The Role We are looking for an Interior Architectural Designer who is highly organized and detail oriented to support the studio across active projects.

Because we are a smaller studio, project needs shift week to week. Some weeks may require focused drawing updates and technical coordination. Other weeks may lean into sourcing research, presentation production, or internal documentation. The role requires someone comfortable moving between design tasks while maintaining a high level of precision. This is an in person role. You will assist with site visits, and installation days as needed.
