Buro North is a design studio specialising in wayfinding, spatial UX, and public realm strategy for complex built environments — campuses, transport precincts, health facilities, and civic spaces. We're looking for a Creative Industrial Designer to join our studio and help translate strategic wayfinding concepts into buildable, beautiful physical outcomes.
About the role
You'll sit at the intersection of design and delivery — taking wayfinding and signage concepts from early creative direction through to fabrication-ready documentation. This role suits someone who thinks in objects and materials as much as ideas, and who's genuinely energised by how something gets made, not just how it looks.
What you'll do
Design signage and wayfinding elements from concept through to construction documentation
Develop material, fixing, and fabrication details that hold up in real-world environments
Produce high-quality 3D renders to communicate design intent to clients and consultants
Collaborate with graphic designers, spatial strategists, and Project Directors across live projects




Liaise with fabricators and manufacturers to resolve buildability, tolerances, and finish
Contribute industrial design thinking to broader public realm and place experience projects
*
What you'll bring
Demonstrated experience in industrial design, signage, or exhibition/fit-out design
Solid understanding of construction methods, materials, and fabrication processes
Confident 3D modelling and rendering skills (Rhino, SolidWorks, or similar - plus a rendering package such as KeyShot, V-Ray, or equivalent)
Ability to produce clear, accurate technical documentation
A portfolio that shows both creative concept work and resolved, real-world detailing
Comfortable working across multiple projects and collaborating with cross-disciplinary teams
*
Nice to have
Experience in wayfinding, signage, or public realm design specifically
Familiarity with accessibility and universal design standards
Exposure to prototyping or working directly with fabricators
Sound like you? We'd love to see your work.
