Job Title: Architect and/or Interior Designer Needed – Custom English Cottage Home



Project Overview:
We are looking to hire an experienced architect and interior designer (open to individual bids or a combined proposal) to help bring our dream home to life. The ideal partner(s) will assist in developing custom house plans, exterior elevation renderings, and interior design support including 3D renderings and material sourcing.

This is a full custom home project inspired by an English cottage aesthetic — symmetrical, timeless, and cozy — with thoughtful space planning for a growing family.



Key Home Layout Details:

Main Level (~2,500–3,000 sq ft):
• Foyer with grand staircase
• Formal living room
• Vaulted-ceiling family room
• Kitchen at the back of the family room
• Semi-enclosed dining room facing the backyard
• Office/study
• Butler’s pantry
• Large laundry/mudroom with access to side-entry garage
• Primary/master bedroom suite
• Daughter’s bedroom with a private full bathroom
• Powder room (half bath)

Upstairs:
• Boys’ bunk room with dedicated bathroom
• Guest bedroom
• Additional flexible room (e.g. bonus, study, playroom)

Basement:

Total: 5+ bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, 3 stories



Design Priorities:
• Symmetrical front elevation (non-negotiable)
• Side-entry garage (no front-facing garage doors)
• West-facing front exterior preferred
• Classic English cottage-style design (steep rooflines, dormers, natural textures, old-world charm)
• Family-friendly layout with natural light and strong flow between spaces



Deliverables Needed:
You can bid on either, or both parts of the project:

Architectural Scope
• Custom floor plans
• Exterior elevation renderings (front and side views)
• Collaboration and revisions to ensure the layout fully aligns with our goals

Interior Design Scope
• Interior space planning and design guidance
• 3D renderings of key rooms (e.g. kitchen, living areas, bathrooms)
• Material/finish selection and sourcing support



Additional Info:
We have layout references and a robust set of inspiration photos to share. We’re looking for collaborative professionals who are comfortable working closely with us to refine the design through feedback and revisions as needed. Strong communication, attention to detail, and creativity are a must.
