Job description

Job Title: Design Intern 

Department: Design 

Supervisory Responsibilities: No

The Design Intern supports the HB Workplaces design team while gaining hands-on experience in commercial interiors, furniture planning, finishes, presentations, and project coordination. This role is designed to give interns meaningful exposure to the full design process—assisting designers with active project work while also beginning to take ownership of smaller projects under the guidance of the design trainer. Interns will build confidence in industry tools, strengthen their understanding of workplace design, and contribute to real client deliverables in a collaborative team environment.

What You'll Experience 

  • Learn the HB design process through assigned training courses, team meetings, and hands-on project exposure.
  • Shadow designers to understand how projects move from initial client needs through specifications, presentations, revisions, and final deliverables.
  • Assist the design team with active project work while gradually building the skills to contribute more independently.
    • Order product samples & finish samples
    • Request COMs & product quotes
    • Prepare color, materials and finish boards as needed
    • Research furniture for projects
    • Convert AutoCAD base drawings
    • Assist designers responding to RFP bids
    • Begin working on small projects with the design trainer to learn process, programs, client expectations, and project ownership.
    • Support additional project needs as opportunities arise, gaining exposure to different project types, timelines, and design team workflows.
  • Help maintain the design library, including organizing materials, finishes, product samples, and resources used by the design team.
  • Prepare furniture presentations and visual materials in Scout or other department tools as needed for project deliverables.
  • Maintain up to date and accurate design hour-records according to current department standards.
  • Participate in weekly design meetings and training events to learn from designers, share progress, and stay connected to team priorities.
  • Perform other duties or special projects as assigned.
  • Present internship learnings and notable project work in a design meeting near the end of the internship.
  • Complete final review with manager to assess project completion and satisfaction with their learning experience.

Education and Experience 

  • Interior Design degree in progress- Junior or Senior year preferred.
  • Professional demeanor.
  • Self-motivated and demonstrate initiative, drive, and perseverance in achieving objectives.
  • Adept at using technological tools including Microsoft Office Suite and other systems and willingness to learn new systems and programs.
  • Detail oriented: Capable of organizing large amounts of information. Enjoys working with spreadsheets, specifications, and specific project details.
  • Teachable: Willing to learn and be guided by peers, mentors, and management.
  • Self-Starter: Actively seeks out ways to assist team without being told.
  • Team Player: Work well as a member of a group, understand your role, welcome collaboration, hold yourself accountable, accept feedback gracefully, maintain flexibility, uphold a positive attitude, and commit to the team.
  • Organized: Able to maintain a schedule, keep up with project deadlines, manage project work and task lists.
