Thoughtful design.

and everything in motion.

I’m Samuele Barbieri — Sam for short. I’m a graphic and motion designer from Milan, now based in Dublin. I studied Graphic Design & Art Direction at NABA, where I developed an interest in the relationship between a good idea and the way it’s presented.

Since then, I’ve worked in agency and in-house teams, from hospitality projects at Dropshot to brand communications at Ryanair. I enjoy moving between identity, digital design, print and animation. Each asks different questions, but clarity, curiosity and attention to detail matter in all of them.

I use AI as part of my creative process, especially for textual and visual brainstorming, exploring ideas, directions, and possibilities more quickly. I’m continuously studying new models, tools, and emerging workflows to deepen my understanding of the technology and expand the ways I can apply it to creative and design work
