Interior Designer (Mid-Senior Level)

Job Description

About Calla Cane

Calla Cane is a design studio where interior architecture, design, and product are consciously intertwined to create intuitive, meaningful spaces. We partner with homeowners, architects, and builders to deliver full-scale interiors—from custom millwork and cabinetry to furnishings, finishes, and art.

We also operate a lifestyle shop in Rowayton, CT, offering a curated selection of decor and artisan goods that reflect our design sensibility and bring product directly into the home.

As part of our team, you’ll help bridge conceptual thinking with hands-on execution, ensuring design integrity from initial vision through installation.

We are entering an exciting period of growth and are looking for team members who want to grow with us. Our goal is to take the studio to the next level—expanding both creatively and operationally to provide greater opportunity within the company. We are seeking driven individuals who want to be part of that journey and contribute to building something meaningful together.

This role requires a  Type A personality —someone who is  obsessed with design, deeply detail-oriented, and takes immense pride in their work.

Role Overview

As a  Mid-to-Senior Interior Designer  at Calla Cane, you will lead or co-lead key residential projects, contributing both creatively and technically. You’ll take ownership of design phases (concept through installation), collaborate with clients, architects, contractors, and art / design vendors, and guide more junior designers. You will also help maintain and elevate our studio’s aesthetic and process standards.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead design development and documentation phases (schematic design, design development, construction documentation) for interior projects
• Produce space plans, elevations, millwork / cabinetry drawings, details, finishes boards, lighting and furnishing layouts
• Oversee and present conceptual design materials (mood boards, 3D renders, sketches) to clients and the principal
• Collaborate with architects, contractors, engineers, and trade partners to integrate interior scope into the broader build
• Specify furniture, lighting, fabrics, materials, art, and accessories, and manage procurement and logistics
• Oversee and troubleshoot site execution, field issues, and design intent during installation
• Mentor and support more junior staff (e.g., Junior / Intermediate Designers)
• Participate in studio-level strategy, design research, and process improvement
• Occasionally support shop operations (merchandising, client visits, product sourcing) and trade partnerships, when relevant
