Nick Richardson

Design Engineer. Systems thinker. Building craft-obsessed tools and experiences β€” with a north star at the intersection of design, technology, and wonder.


About

I'm a Design Engineer at PMI and founder of Darkfield Studio. I live at the intersection of design systems and code β€” obsessed with the craft of turning complex systems into something that feels effortless. When I'm not pushing pixels into production, I'm plotting a path toward Disney Imagineering.

  • Current: Design Engineer at PMI, Founder of Darkfield Studio
  • Focus: Design systems, component architecture, bridging design and engineering
  • Dog: Sassy Pomeranian "Sophie" that likes to join meetings
  • Hobbies: F1 fanatic, World of Warcraft & Halo diehard, mechanical keyboard collector

What I Do

Design Engineering: Design Systems, Tokens, Component Architecture, Variant Logic, Interaction Design

Frontend & Tooling: React, TypeScript, JavaScript, Tailwind, HTML, CSS, Node, Bun

Spatial & Creative: Three.js, Creative Coding, Interactive Experiences, Spatial Design

Delivery: Figma component libraries, design reviews, code reviews, story slicing, stakeholder communication

I'm strongest where design systems, product strategy, and technology intersect.
