Location: London (hybrid: three to four days in-office, one to two days WFH)
Job type: full-time, permanent
About Ademchic
Ademchic is a boutique London-based design studio that helps property developers bring their visions to life – whether that’s transforming historic Grade II listed buildings or crafting interiors for striking new-builds.
We blend style with strategy, designing homes that are not only beautiful but also commercially successful. From moodboards to marketing suites, we create spaces that sell.
We’re a small, talented team of seven (plus one dog), working across projects ranging from nine to 385 units. 87% of our clients come back for more – proof that we’re doing something right.
Our studio is in Camden, but you’ll often find us working from home, bouncing ideas on Slack, or getting stuck into a site visit. At Ademchic, collaboration is key, creativity is constant, and no two days – or designs – are ever the same.
