REBUILD THE W0RLD
💫✨
Our participatory design studio is looking for interns in industrial design. (And also marketing, jump down ↓).
*
This is not your usual internship…
The goal of your internship will be to develop a new Ikego set and new parts for the open Ikego design system. You’ll become an Ikego designer!
HARD FACTS
- You’ll own your set (your IP). No NDA. It is your work.
- Location: Remote or Berlin-based (hybrid).
- Part-time or full-time. One to three months. Start date flexible.
- Ikego will cover all material expenses related to your projects.
- But → We cannot offer a salary. And we can’t provide insurance coverage. This means that we primarily work with students who are completing a mandatory internship or a remote placement as part of their studies. This ensures that you are covered under your university’s statutory accident insurance while working with us. This is a requirement. If you have this coverage, this is the right place for you. If not, but you are still interested in joining us, please scroll down to see other options ↓.
WHAT YOU GET
- Experience in open circular design and distributed collaborative design processes.
- Connections to the network of Ikego designers, opening up future job and income opportunities within the Ikego world.
- A new entry for your portfolio.
- An official internship certificate for your CV.
- The chance to contribute to a design research project that actually aims to make a difference for a sustainable future, challenges the status quo, and helps the design world become more circular.
We have 4 spots available in total.
Interested? Send us your application and portfolio.

No insurance?
- If you don’t have insurance coverage because an internship isn’t tied to your study program, but you’d still like to work with us to develop a project, that’s possible.
- In this case, our partnership won’t be framed as an ‘internship,’ but as a collaboration. You’ll receive the exact same support as our interns: funding for materials, regular calls, guidance, and network access.
- You’ll have a great project for your portfolio and CV. You’ll be an Ikego designer.
- Interested? Reach out.

Marketing?
Yes, we also offer internships in Marketing. Please make sure to read the information above (hard facts ↑) regarding internships, portfolio, and the network.
But what will your project be? Not a new set, but a new campaign. Ikego aims to explore creative approaches to marketing: Guerilla marketing, hacking, hype drops, and more. No Meta, no Google, no Spam. But creativity. And hopeful activism.
If you are a creative person who wants to research, invent, and use fresh ways to build a community around an innovative building system that offers new ways of consumption and collaboration, reach out to us.
