THE ENGAGEMENT
This is a flagship cultural project. The site needs to feel like the institution it represents: confident, art-forward, and memorable. Not a template with a logo dropped in.
You'll work directly with our team, designing in Figma and handing off to developers. The engagement is short and intense: 6–8 weeks, part-time, milestone-driven, starting immediately.
ABOUT ROCK PAPER REALITY
We're an innovative creative studio specialising in immersive storytelling and next-gen digital experiences. We've built work for Epic Games, Adobe, Amazon, Google, LVMH, Netflix, and Microsoft, and we care a lot about craft.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Design the visual and interaction system for the site: key pages, states, and responsive behaviour
- Build and maintain a proper Figma file: components, auto-layout, variants, working prototypes
- Design and specify motion: page transitions, scroll-driven animation, micro-interactions, hover and loading states
- Own typography, layout, and visual hierarchy at a high level of craft
- Hand off cleanly to developers with specs they can actually build from
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU
- 8+ years designing production web/product interfaces, including senior or lead ownership, not just contributing within someone else's design system.
- Deep, hands-on Figma expertise. Components, auto-layout, variants, prototyping. Not static mock-ups.
- A real sense of motion. You can design and spec transitions, scroll behaviour, and interactive states, and you understand what's actually buildable.
- A bold, modern portfolio. Editorial, art-forward, or cultural-sector work stands out to us. Show us work you art-directed, not just executed.
- You take a loose brief and run. We don't have bandwidth to art-direct you. We need someone who makes strong calls independently and flags trade-offs, not someone who needs the brief broken down.
- Comfort with rich interactive experiences and clean developer handoff.
- Excellent typographic and layout craft. This is a visual-first project.
- EMEA-based, with flexibility to overlap with a Gulf-region working day.
- Genuine availability now. We're interviewing this week and starting next.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
This isn't a fit for early-career designers, or people who've mostly executed within an existing system rather than defined one.
Nice to have
- Previous work with cultural, tourism, arts, or brand-experience clients
- Awareness of accessibility (WCAG) and multi-device/responsive design
- Experience designing bilingual or RTL layouts
- Comfort working alongside a WebGL or creative-dev build
HOW TO APPLY
- Portfolio link, and point us to the two or three most relevant projects
- Two short case studies: what the brief was, what you specifically did (be precise about your role), and what shipped
- One Figma file we can look at: view access to a real working file, client names redacted if needed. We want to see how you structure components and build prototypes, not just the final pixels.
- In 2–3 sentences: describe a project where you had to make a significant creative call with little brief, and what you decided.
- Your availability and day rate
