Environment

This is an on-site job in our working studio in West Town where fabrication of large-scale artworks happen. You must be able to thrive in a fast-paced and open working studio environment. You will be physically building and making things. It's awesome (and noisy, dusty, and smelly at times…) but it’s the sounds, feeling and smell of creativity hard at work.

Compensation and Hours

Compensation is commensurate with experience and is paid per hour as a full-time hourly employee. In addition, you’ll be eligible for medical and dental benefits and earn overtime (1.5x) when applicable. Hours worked are expected to be approximately 40 hours per week and may vary depending upon the schedule of client projects and potential travel for installations. Our studio hours are 8:30am - 4:30pm M-F; however, installs can take place outside of our normal business hours.

Core Values: Integrity, Humility, Proactivity, Resourcefulness, Be Direct=

About AllKinds Studio

AllKinds is a multi-disciplinary design and fabrication studio that uses all kinds of materials to create custom art installations for brands. With commissions from corporations, organizations, art consultants, branding agencies and architecture firms, we tailor-make each artwork to fit large-scale spaces for brands, interiors, events and movements. Our dedicated team of designers, artists and fabricators mix materials, technologies and techniques to create art and objects that are innovative, meaningful, beautiful and on-brand. We thrive in our collaborative approach, welcoming new ideas and getting excited about the “what ifs”. Our combined skill sets and handmade approach enables us to produce anything we can conceive, including even the most complex or technical concepts. With every project, our shared goal is to create a meaningful environment that tells a story in an elevated, authentic and impactful way.

At the completion of our projects, we make every effort to repurpose, recycle or donate leftover materials to ensure they are given the longest, most meaningful lives possible.
