Overview
Environmental Designer Jobs in Ferndale, USA at Activate Inc.
Environmental Designer (Events & Packaging)
At Activate, we don’t design for screens: we design for the real world.
We’re looking for an Environmental Designer who has a proven ability to take ideas from concept → into physical reality. This includes everything from PR kits and packaging to full‑scale live event environments
.
If your work lives primarily in social media, branding, or digital design, this likely isn’t the role for you.
What You’ll Do
You’ll concept and design experiences that people can walk through, interact with, and remember.
- Design physical environments for events, activations, and mobile tours
- Concept and execute PR kits and packaging (structural + visual)
- Translate ideas into buildable, real‑world outputs
- Create mood boards, mockups, and pitch decks that sell ideas internally and to clients
- Develop graphics for print, large format, and spatial applications
- Collaborate closely with Production and Fabrication to bring concepts to life
- Occasionally support on‑site execution to ensure design integrity
What We’re Looking For
- 3+ years of relevant experiential, environmental, or physical design experience
- A portfolio that clearly shows real‑world applications (events, environments, architecture, installations, packaging, etc.)
- Strong understanding of scale, materials, and how things actually get built
- Ability to design across 2D + 3D + spatial contexts
- Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator & Photoshop required)
- Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment
What Doesn’t Fit This Role
We want to respect your time as much as ours.
This role is not a fit for candidates whose experience is primarily in:
- Branding without physical execution
- Purely conceptual work without real‑world production
Why Activate?
We’re a hands‑on experiential agency that produces:
- National mobile tours
- Large‑scale brand activations
- Custom PR kits and gifting programs
You’ll work alongside a team that values
- Practical creativity (ideas that actually get made)
- Collaboration across disciplines
- Ownership from concept through execution
If your portfolio shows work that exists in the real world we want to see it!
