Lea Schwegler is a multi-disciplinary designer specializing in digital products & systems thinking. 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 allows me to navigate various domains, catering to a wide range of projects and welcoming challenges at every step of a startup’s journey. What sets me apart is my commitment to systems thinking, where I consider the interconnectedness of elements within a larger system, offering a strategic and comprehensive design perspective. The goal is bridging the gap between user needs and business objectives and crafting scalable solutions that allow startups to make new decisions easily. Right from the start, I strive to stimulate innovation, guiding products towards the most raw and purpose-driven experiences and helping them shine in meaningful ways. Often, this process includes developing a robust identity deeply tied to the products' DNA, enabling them to earn trust within the market.

I find the biggest joy in projects driven by curiosity, empathy, and quick iteration. In my design practice, I consistently challenge norms and aim to turn complicated problems into practical solutions, always keeping the user at the centre 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 stepping back to ensure that every component is in harmony with the bigger picture, and my designs are well-supported by comprehensive documentation.
