Part 2 Architectural Assistant
We are seeking a talented and motivated Part 2 Architectural Assistant to join our studio in Lymington.
About Us
Ström Architects specialises in bespoke, design-led residential projects, offering interior design alongside architecture. This is a genuinely exciting opportunity: you will work across live projects from concept through to delivery, gaining broad, hands-on exposure to different building types and every stage of the design process, from early concept work and planning submissions through to technical detailing, consultant coordination, and construction-stage support.
Responsibilities
Day to day, you will:
- Assist in developing concept designs and technical drawings for bespoke residential and high-end development projects
- Collaborate closely with project teams to shape innovative, high-quality design outcomes
- Help prepare presentation materials and technical documentation
- Liaise directly with consultants and other project stakeholders under the guidance of senior team members
- Take an active part in design discussions, studio activities, and project reviews
- Support the marketing side of the practice - helping with award submissions, keeping our website and architecture platforms up to date, and contributing to social media campaigns
