Where the plus one fits
Project-based design support, inside your existing team. Here's where Savanna can pull up a chair.
Architecture + design firms
Thirteen years at Gensler means Savanna knows the rhythm of a design firm. Add support for a specific phase, or bring her in to help lead the design from the first ideas through construction administration.
Commercial real estate firms
Help a tenant see how a space could work. Savanna develops test fits that check program requirements and headcount, then uses concepts, models, and renderings to make the possibilities easier to see.
A test fit gives the conversation something concrete: where people sit, how teams meet, and how the space supports the work.
Illustration only.
Every real test fit starts with your brief.
Experience agencies
Since 2023, Savanna has worked as a freelance Associate Environmental Design Director for global experience agencies. She brings interior design thinking to large corporate events, remotely and on-site.
Environmental design work samples available on request.
Your independent collaborator
I'm Savanna Barker, a Seattle-based interior designer with 16 years of experience. I spent 13 years at Gensler, growing into a Senior Designer and Associate, before taking my design work freelance.
I bring that experience into your team: the design thinking, the working drawings, and the conversations that move a project forward. Twenty Six Robots is a one-human agency. When we work together, you're working with me.
Before we pull up a chair
Yes. Savanna works as an independent contractor within your team's workflow, with support shaped around the scope you agree on. If your company has its own vendor onboarding steps, Twenty Six Robots can work through those too.
Most work happens remotely, across time zones. Site visits, key meetings, and on-site event support can be considered depending on location and availability.
Rates depend on the length and type of engagement. Send an inquiry for the services guide, and check the availability calendar for a first look at timing.
Savanna reviews each engagement for potential conflicts and can sign a non-disclosure agreement. Project documents, contracts, and invoices live in a secure client portal.
