• Design attractive architectural façades with good proportions, window arrangements, materials and detailing.

• Balance design aesthetics with construction practicality and project budgets.

Technical Drawings & Design Coordination

• Prepare accurate and detailed floor plans, elevations, sections and construction drawings.
• Develop window and door schedules, dimensions, ceiling levels, staircase details and architectural finishes.
• Ensure drawings are sufficiently detailed for site execution.
• Coordinate architectural, structural, M&E and interior design requirements.
• Identify potential design conflicts and construction issues before works commence.
• Work closely with in-house designers, consultants and site teams.

Project Management & Site Execution

• Take ownership of assigned projects from design development through construction and handover.
• Prepare and monitor project schedules, ensuring works progress according to plan.
• Coordinate subcontractors, suppliers and site teams.
• Conduct regular site inspections to ensure workmanship meets company standards.
• Identify potential site problems early and propose practical solutions.
• Ensure construction works follow approved drawings, specifications and design intent.
• Monitor project progress, quality, defects and timely rectification.

Client Management

• Communicate directly with homeowners on design development, project progress and technical matters.
• Present design proposals and explain practical design recommendations.
• Manage client expectations and coordinate design decisions.
• Support initial client consultations and project proposals when required.

Requirements

We are looking for an Architectural Design & Project Lead who has a good eye for design, strong technical detailing skills, and the ability to manage projects from design development through construction and handover.

• Diploma or Degree in Architecture, Interior Architecture, Interior Design or a related discipline.
• Minimum 4–6 years of relevant experience in residential Design & Build, architectural design or project management.
• Good architectural design sense, particularly in façade design and space planning.
• Proficient in AutoCAD and relevant 3D design software such as SketchUp, Enscape, Lumion or equivalent.
• Able to independently produce detailed architectural and construction drawings.
• Good understanding of construction methods, materials, detailing and site coordination.

What We Value We value people who take ownership of their work, think ahead, pay attention to details and take pride in seeing their designs successfully built.
