Graphic Designer - Beauty & Visual Merchandising (Mid-Level, Temporary / Project

Industrial Color is a creative production agency with studios in New York and Los Angeles, partnering with leading global brands across fashion, beauty, and culture. We’re seeking a mid-level Graphic Designer for a temporary, project-based engagement (up to approximately three months) to support a fast-paced, high-visibility beauty account.

This role is ideal for a designer who understands how graphics live in physical spaces—from retail displays and packaging systems to campaign visuals that translate seamlessly from concept to shelf. Experience in beauty or cosmetics is highly valued.

You are detail-driven, visually fluent, and comfortable stepping into an existing creative workflow to execute with speed and precision. Your portfolio demonstrates strong typography, composition, color sensibility, and the ability to design for real-world environments.

In this role, you will:

• Design graphics for in-store displays, visual merchandising assets, and retail environments
• Create print-ready files for display components, signage, fixtures, and promotional materials
• Support seasonal and campaign-based display changeovers
• Conduct visual research and source references to inform creative direction
• Create polished, visually compelling presentations that clearly communicate concepts, layouts, and style guidelines
• Develop and apply color palettes that translate effectively across physical and printed applications
• Collaborate closely with Creative Directors, senior designers, and production teams
• Contribute to creative development from concept through final execution

Skills & Competencies:

Print & Visual Design Excellence
Strong command of typography, layout, color, and composition, with hands-on experience designing for print and physical environments.

Beauty / Cosmetics Experience (Preferred)
Familiarity with beauty branding, product storytelling, and retail-focused design.

Visual Merchandising Awareness
Experience designing graphics that integrate with fixtures, displays, and spatial layouts.

Adaptability & Execution
Able to ramp up quickly, manage multiple timelines, and deliver high-quality work under tight deadlines.
