Junior Architect

Junior Architect | Alora Designs | Bangalore | Residential, Commercial & Hospitality Design Most Junior Architects spend their first three years producing drawings for someone else's vision. At Alora Designs, you'll help shape the vision — working directly with our founder on concept development, design detailing, and construction drawings for projects that actually get built the way they were designed. About Alora Designs Alora Designs is a premium architecture and interior design studio based in Bangalore, working across high-end residential architecture, commercial architecture, and hospitality design. We're a boutique studio by choice — small enough that every architect on the team has real ownership of their projects, and growing fast enough that the opportunities keep expanding. Our work is defined by design excellence, material honesty, and a level of detailing most studios reserve for senior architects only. If you believe architecture is won or lost in the details, you'll fit right in. The Role As a Junior Architect at Alora Designs, you'll work across the full lifecycle of a project — from early concept sketches through design development, working drawings, and on-site coordination during construction. You'll report directly to the founder, giving you a level of mentorship and design exposure that's rare at this stage of a career. This is architectural design work, not just drafting: you'll be expected to think, question, and contribute ideas from day one. What You'll Do Develop architectural design concepts for residential, commercial, and hospitality projects, from early sketches through design development Prepare working drawings and construction drawings — plans, sections, elevations, and detailed junctions Research and specify materials, finishes, and construction details in collaboration with senior architects Coordinate with structural, MEP, and interior design consultants to ensure design intent carries through to execution Conduct site visits and support site coordination during construction to ensure drawings translate faithfully into built spaces Produce 3D visualizations and presentation material for design reviews and client meetings Participate in client-facing design presentations as your role grows What We're Looking For Must-have: B.Arch degree, COA registered or eligible for registration 1–3 years of relevant experience as an Architect, Junior Architect, or Architectural Designer — ideally at a design-led residential, commercial, or hospitality studio Strong design sensibility and a portfolio that demonstrates architectural design thinking, not just technical execution Proficiency in AutoCAD and at least one 3D design tool — SketchUp, Revit, or Rhino Comfort moving between concept design, construction drawings, and site coordination Nice-to-have: Experience with rendering and visualization tools (Lumion, V-Ray, or Enscape) Prior exposure to hospitality design or high-end residential architecture projects Working knowledge of interior design coordination Why Architects Choose Alora Designs Direct founder mentorship — you'll work closely with the founding team on every project, not several layers removed from decision-making Real project ownership — your design ideas and detailing decisions go into buildings and interiors that get built, not just rendered Cross-typology exposure — residential, commercial, and hospitality design experience in a single portfolio, faster than most larger firms offer A genuine growth path — as a fast-growing studio, we promote from within as we scale, with a clear trajectory from Junior Architect toward project leadership A craft-first culture — we care about materials, detailing, and design quality as much as you do Compensation & Work Details Compensation: 25,000-45000 based on experience Work mode: In studio (Mon-fri), off on 2nd and 4th saturdays Location: Indiranagar, Bangalore How to Apply Send a mail, and include your portfolio and resume to office@aloradesigns.com .
