Senior Spatial Designer (m/f/d)

Your mission

As a Senior Spatial Designer at Sunst, you develop and design brand spaces and immersive environments.

You translate brand identity into spatial systems, structures, installations and objects — creating three-dimensional environments that express both contemporary culture and brand DNA.

Your work includes:

• Brand spaces
• Temporary structures
• Immersive brand environments
• Installations
• Spatial systems
• Objects and bespoke furniture elements
• Three-dimensional brand expressions

You define the design language of a project and ensure it holds across scale — from a custom furniture detail to a full architectural takeover.

You think in materiality, proportion, rhythm and construction logic.

You design environments that feel intentional, precise and culturally relevant.

You operate at the intersection of architecture, scenography and contemporary brand culture — with a clear focus on design authorship in space.

Spatial Design & Brand Expression

• Design spatial environments and objects with a strong aesthetic point of view

• Translate brand DNA into spatial expression, atmosphere and material language

• Shape form, proportion, rhythm and flow to create clear stylistic identity

• Develop spatial concepts that express attitude, culture and narrative

Design Development & Refinement

• Translate conceptual ideas into coherent spatial proposals with visual clarity

• Define material direction, surface logic and spatial composition

• Ensure consistency and aesthetic integrity across all spatial elements

• Balance realism and feasibility from a design-first perspective

Production Awareness & Collaboration

• Work closely with producers and technical partners to ensure feasibility

• Understand construction logic and constraints without being defined by them

• Guide detailing and material decisions in collaboration with fabricators

• Maintain design intent throughout development and realization

Communication & Realization

• Communicate spatial intent clearly through sketches, references and 3D tools

• Present work with strong visual storytelling and conceptual clarity

• Support on-site implementation when required to safeguard design quality

• Ensure the built outcome reflects the original aesthetic vision
