Armenia is witnessing a huge architectural boost at present. One can see new buildings with modern trends combined with tradition pop up in the city of Yerevan every day. We work closely with several architectural studios, where creative and innovative environment and highly proficient team is open to host volunteers/interns with relevant background and skills. In this field we can offer not only hands-on work on specific architectural and interior design projects, but also research work on Armenian architecture not only in Armenia, but also Georgia, Turkey, Iran, etc.

Super fun and learning opportunities are out there for applicants with background in Graphic Design!  Volunteers can join professionals to design projects or teach graphic design to kids.
