Interior Design

Des Moines, Omaha or St. Louis

Each summer, RDG Planning & Design opens its doors to a new group of summer interns who work alongside professionals in various disciplines and across multiple markets, learning directly from seasoned practitioners and getting hands-on project experience. 

We’re currently looking for an intern to join our interiors team this summer and contribute to the design of spaces that reflect the unique culture and vision of each client we serve.

Pre-packaged is nice when it comes to snacks. When it comes to interior design, however, we believe it’s better to think outside the box. At RDG, our interiors practice isn’t about pre-packaged design, but about helping clients make the right choices to create spaces that fit their needs today and far into the future. 

When you join the RDG team, you’re joining a group of forward-thinking, positive-minded collaborators who create meaning together every day. We’re a design and planning firm filled with talented experts across multiple disciplines teaming up to create sustainable spaces across the country that improve people’s lives and make our world better.
