Hey, you! Wanna become #OneOfUs?
We are on the lookout 🕵🏻 for the next awesome layout-obsessed print designer to join our HKR team as a Graphic Designer (Print & Lookbooks), working for a US-based client in luxury furniture and interior design space. 🇺🇸
Btw, HKR was remote before it was even cool! 😎
Remote is allowed, encouraged, and the norm. Now, and forever. There’s only one catch, and it comes from this guy:
“Whatever you are, be a good one” - Abraham Lincoln.
