Sam Colavecchio - Landesberg Design

Sam comes to Landesberg Design from Carnegie Mellon University, where she earned a Master’s Degree in Design; she also has a BA in Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies from the University of Pittsburgh. Prior to joining LD, Sam had experience working with Pittsburgh-area nonprofits: designing educational and marketing communications for The Center for Student Diversity and Inclusion at CMU, and supporting Pennsylvania Organization for Women in Early Recovery (POWER) in both client-facing and communications roles. Sam’s design approach balances conscientious research and thoughtful decision making with curious, unexpected, and joyful typographic solutions.

Country of origin and what drew me to Pittsburgh:

I’m originally from New Jersey and New England. I came to Pittsburgh for school and stayed because I like the people.

My collections

I’m proud of my small-ish but mighty record collection. She’s not quite like High Fidelity by any means but she’s mine.
