Interior Design Director (Hospitality + Residential + Amenities)

Apply Now
Hybrid

Elysium is building an environment where everyday life feels upgraded—without feeling fake.
Interiors here aren’t decoration. They’re behavioral engineering: flow, comfort, sensory cues, social gravity, privacy, and delight.

We need someone who can make “high experience yield” visible—through materials, lighting, texture, acoustics, and layout—while still respecting cost and durability.

The mission (what you’ll actually do)

You will design the lived experience: units, shared spaces, dining, co-working, fitness, lounges, and “third places” that make the community feel alive.

You’ll own:

  • A unified interior language across hospitality + residential + amenity spaces.
  • FF&E strategy that balances durability, supply chain, cost, and beauty.
  • Standards that scale: the interior “system” that can be replicated across cities.
  • Collaboration with architecture, MEP, procurement, and community experience teams.

Profile we’re looking for (non-negotiables)

  • 8–15+ years in hospitality/residential interiors with built projects.
  • Deep competence in materials, lighting, acoustics, and durable details.
  • Can design for both wow and maintenance reality.
  • Strong supply-chain pragmatism: understands lead times and substitutions without losing the vibe.

What you’ll build in your first 90 days

  • An interior design bible: palettes, materials, lighting principles, furniture standards.
  • A cost-aware FF&E plan with alternates (so we don’t panic-substitute later).
  • Prototypes for 1–2 hero spaces that set the tone for the entire village.
