Company Overview:
Designworks, a BMW Group Company provides full-service design solutions for premium brands worldwide. Our history spans over forty years, and continues to earn numerous awards and industry accolades along the way.

Founded in 1972 in a small studio in Malibu, California, and acquired by BMW Group in 1995, today Designworks pairs the pragmatism and resources of a global company while retaining the nimble, independent spirit and perspective that's true to our roots.

Designworks thrives in a climate of true cross-fertilization, advancing its observations, research and experiences from multiple industries to create new solutions that innovate rather than merely reinforcing the status quo. We serve as the internal-think tank for our parent company, BMW Group, and consult for a roster of external clients that includes many of the World's most renowned and respected brands.

We have an Industrial Design intern position available starting in January 2020.

This is a Full-Time Internship opportunity working with our creative team in our California Studio. The candidate will interact with other design professionals and colleagues at Designworks on collaborative projects in an effort to learn hands-on, real world design problem-solving in the field of Industrial Design.
