Meet the Designer: Sam Lewis
Creativity has always been at the heart of Sam's career. After discovering a passion for graphic design at a young age, he studied Graphic Design at Norwich University of the Arts, specialising in publishing design.
After joining Schoolblazer in 2024, Sam has combined those design foundations with cutting-edge technology, spending the past two years spearheading our transition from traditional 2D CADs to AI-powered 3D garment visualisation.
By creating hundreds of highly realistic garment visualisations, Sam enables schools to see exactly how their uniform will look long before the first physical sample is produced. It's a technically demanding process, involving accurate colour matching, garment customisation and continuous refinement as products evolve, but the results help schools visualise their new uniform with greater confidence throughout the design journey. It also reduces the need for multiple physical samples, helping to speed up development, reduce costs and minimise waste.
For Sam, the most rewarding part of the role is seeing a design evolve from a flat 2D concept into a finished garment worn with pride by pupils.
It's a great example of how creativity, technology and innovation are helping Schoolblazer redefine the future of school uniform design.
