Careers at Design House Digital

Digital Designers

Our Design Team

Our designers work closely together as a team and work with each other often.  Every month, they work on our “House Party” collaboration series, where they share a color palette and build coordinating kits that are available for sale individually in the store.  They also build several collaboration kits throughout the year.  Every week, two designers pair up to create coordinating kits as part of their featured designer weekend.  They communicate often via email, forums, and Facebook.  They also try to meet monthly on a conference call to encourage each other and to discuss issues related to store and digital design.  So, you see, if you come to Design House Digital, you need to be prepared to work closely with other designers: to share ideas, share techniques, and grow each other as we grow the shop as a whole.

We want active designers who will regularly:

  • put new kits in the shop
  • create 2 blog posts per quarter, containing inspiration or new techniques
  • contribute to our House Party collaboration series once per quarter
  • contribute to 6 free kits per year
  • host one challenge per quarter in our gallery
  • be active in our forums
  • grow their own brand through their own blog and/or social media accounts

Design House Decorators

Design House Digital is currently looking for new decorators. If you are interested, send an email to [email protected].  We are a fun bunch of people, and have a great time!

DECORATOR RESPONSIBILITIES

Design House Digital has three kinds of decorator positions. Being on one team doesn’t mean you have to be on another team.

Layout Team

  • 4 layouts a month (1 layout for a 1 Kit 4 Ways post; 1 layout for a 4play post)
  • Host a challenge once a quarter
  • Host a 4play once a quarter
  • Actively participate in the forums
  • Actively give praise in the gallery

Hybrid team

  • 2 cards a month (1 card for either a 1 Kit 4 Ways post or a 4play post; the other for whatever you want)
  • 1 blogged hybrid project a month (not a card; we do material cost reimbursement)
  • Host a challenge once a quarter
  • Actively participate in the forums
  • Actively give praise in the gallery

Tutorial team

  • 1 video or blog tutorial a month
  • Host a challenge once a quarter
  • Actively participate in the forums
  • Actively give praise in the gallery

Being on multiple DHD decorator teams

Every decorator is eligible for free product, so you have the digital materials needed to do what they do. Decorators are more than welcome to join more than one DHD team, and we have some special incentives for our multi-team decorators.

Every decorator is required to host a challenge once a quarter, actively participate in the forums, and actively give praise in the gallery. If you join more than one team, you don’t have to double-up on these requirements.

Exclusivity

Just to clarify: we used to require our decorators to be semi-exclusive to our shop. However, that is not the case anymore. Our decorators are welcome to be on as many creative teams as they wish.
