ABOUT ME
ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Sam 👋
Hi, I'm Sam 👋
I'm Sam Richmond, a product designer based in Lisbon, Portugal. Good coffee and a tidy Figma file are part of my daily routine.
I'm Sam Richmond, a product designer based in Lisbon, Portugal. Good coffee and a tidy Figma file are part of my daily routine.
I started out in visual design after studying communication. Early on I found out how much I enjoy the space where creativity meets technology, and picked up a habit that still guides my work: asking why before asking how.
I started out in visual design after studying communication. Early on I found out how much I enjoy the space where creativity meets technology, and picked up a habit that still guides my work: asking why before asking how.
That habit brought me to product design. I wanted to go beyond screens and understand business, data, strategy and impact. With six years in the field, I now design and evolve digital products for SaaS, fintech, marketplaces and e-commerce.

Away from the screen, I'm driven by curiosity and continuous learning. Cycling, cooking for friends and exploring new cities with a camera shape the way I see the world and solve problems.

I believe great designers keep building their repertoire,
ask better questions and never stop learning.

Sam is a standout designer. As a mentor to designers I meet a lot of people, and few combine empathy, a sharp sense for real problems and work that delivers value the way Sam does. Through our mentoring sessions I also saw a rare soft skill: resilience. Sam doesn't give up.

I worked with Sam on the design team, and from day one Sam's curiosity and attention to detail stood out.
