Making things that make things.

I'm Rich, a design engineer in London. I've been doing this professionally for over ten years, constantly learning and reinventing: from interaction design at IDEO to AI vehicle generation at Arrival and physical AI at Archetype. This site is a small portfolio put together for Neko Health.
