Lea Schwegler is a multi-disciplinary designer specializing in digital products & interaction design. Currently designing at Logic+Rhythm. Formerly @Metalab and Input Logic.

For the most part I’ve been helping founders and early stage startups building their design foundation by crafting digital experiences and identities from scratch. Transforming ideas into something tangible has always fascinated me, and I embrace blank canvases as they were my playground.

My diverse skillset and strategic design perspective allows me to move seamlessly between domains, tackling challenges at every stage of a startup’s journey. What sets me apart is my systems-thinking approach—I don’t just design interfaces; considering the interconnectedness of elements, I design cohesive ecosystems where every element works in harmony. By bridging user needs and business goals, I create scalable, adaptable solutions that empower startups to make informed decisions as they grow. Right from the start, I strive to stimulate innovation, guiding products towards the most raw and purpose-driven experiences that connect with users in meaningful ways. Often, this process includes developing a robust identity deeply tied to the products' DNA, enabling them to earn trust and recognition within the market.

I find the biggest joy in projects driven by curiosity, empathy, and quick iteration. My design philosophy is rooted in challenging norms, untangling complexity, and refining interactions to their most essential and elegant forms, always keeping the user at the heart of the decision making process. When it comes to achieving greatness, I'm a firm believer that interdisciplinary collaboration and paying attention to the little things are key to success. While being all about a detail-oriented approach, I also naturally find myself zooming out to ensure that every element aligns with the broader vision. My work is always backed by comprehensive documentation, ensuring that designs aren’t just beautiful, but also structured, scalable, and future-proof.
