Architecture Fall Internship 2026 (Tiny Home Community)

BEAU Property Management and its nonprofit organization Charite du BEAU, or CDB, is looking for Fall Semester interns for immediate hire. Interns are going to be working on conceptualizing unique designs for a Tiny Home Community, as they assist in brainstorming new developments. In particular, this Fall we are going to be focusing on two lots, one in California and one in Texas.

The program is intended to be 2 months, Participants in the internship are going to get real-life, hands-on experience designing real estate development projects. The six design briefs include:

Month 1:

• Tiny House (Western Style)

• Tiny House (Spanish Style)

• Community Center (Western Style)

• Community Center (Spanish Style)

Month 2:

• Site plan for Tiny Houses and Community Center

• Small residential building with commercial space for supermarket

Due to the complexity and high skill-level involved, we are asking for serious applicants only- ideally those who are in college studying architecture or have at least a small working portfolio. Use and possession of CAD (computer-assisted design) software is a MUST. Lumion, Enscape, and Rhino are a plus. Desire to work in modern and classical styles preferred.

The internship is structured with weekly submissions the first month, and bi-weekly projects due the second. The program may go on longer depending on interns' willingness to continue working on additional projects, or based on school requirements. The internship does not offer pay, but we do allow you to take the internship for college credit. Being a student or taking the program for credit is not a requirement for the internship, though.

This opportunity is ideal for students and young industry professionals to build their portfolios, expand their network, and gain professional guidance and management from a Master's recipient, an AIA accredited mentor, and an AXP Supervisor for those looking to gain hours towards their NCARB certification and licensure.

Applicants sending resumes, portfolios, and completing online assessments are to be considered more so than others.
