TESTIMONIALS & REVIEWS
EEEEE
Real people. Real stories.
Here’s what my clients say about working with me.
Richard’s ability to merge design, technical development, and strategic thinking is unmatched. His attention to detail is only rivaled by his foresight — anticipating challenges and opportunities before they arise.
In over a decade of working with creative professionals, I’ve never found a partner as skilled, proactive, and genuinely client-focused. Lucidity doesn’t just meet expectations — it delivers lasting impact.
If you get the opportunity to work with him, take it.
Richard has been an integral part of our work at Constitution Hill since 2021, consistently bringing professionalism, creative excellence, and strategic insight to every project. From the Basha Uhuru Freedom Festival to the Human Rights Festival, his contributions year after year have been exceptional. He creates visually aligned, mobile-ready websites that match each year’s unique creative direction — and he’s pulled off entire launches in record time.
His work has helped us consistently engage the public and media — and, more than once, contributed to sold-out events. He’s more than a designer or developer — he’s a trusted collaborator who understands the urgency, complexity, and cultural importance of the work.
We’re proud to call him a partner, and grateful for his responsiveness, attention to detail, and unwavering dedication.
We wholeheartedly endorse Lucidity for anyone who wants to do things differently when it comes to design. Across a range of projects, Richard has consistently brought both analytical thinking and creative vision to the table — and always takes the time to truly understand the business he’s working with.
Lucidity is not your plug-and-play design solution — it’s a collaborative partnership rooted in quality, strategy, and purpose. Beyond design, Richard brings technical expertise that’s saved us time, money, and stress more times than we can count. Whether solving complex backend issues, offering platform advice, or just being our go-to for “can you make this work?” support — he delivers with clarity and calm every single time.
The results are always clean, eye-catching, and intentional — paired with a work ethic and attitude that make collaboration easy.
In fact, we were so impressed, we even tried to convince Richard to join us long-term with an offer of shares — that’s how much we believe in the value he brings. For now, we’re just grateful to keep collaborating with him.
He’s a rare creative who gets both sides of the brief, and we’re proud to keep building smart, scalable brands with him as a key part of our team.
Lucidity is a great all-round web and graphic design company I’d happily recommend to anyone. They turned out to be the perfect choice to develop our full visual identity — from logo design and a brand manual to our company presentation deck and website.
They showed deep understanding of our marketing communications agency and picked up on every nuance of how our brand needed to look, feel, and communicate. And they didn’t just get it — they nailed it.
Everything was delivered on time, on budget, and to an incredibly high standard. Richard is a true professional and a pleasure to work with. His ability to produce such quality results under pressure is rare, and exactly why Lucidity remains one of the best creative partners out there.

He has that rare combination of true artistic instinct and an easygoing, collaborative nature that makes working together a total pleasure.
I look forward to continuing our collaboration and seeing what magic he brings next.
Richard’s artworks caught our attention before he even joined the Curioos platform. His imaginative, dreamlike style resonated with our team right away, and in March 2013, we published a featured collection titled When Dreams Become Reality — a truly stunning and thoughtful addition to our curation.
Later that year, we selected just 14 artists out of thousands for a special exposition at the SoHo Gallery in New York City. Wanting to showcase someone with exceptional talent, our team naturally turned to Richard. His work drew an enormous amount of attention — with hundreds of fans gathering to view his pieces, purchase signed posters, and connect with the emotion behind the collection.
His creativity, dedication, and professionalism — especially under deadline pressure — left a lasting impression. Richard is an artist we are proud to have worked with, and we look forward to future collaborations.
We’ve partnered with Richard across multiple projects — from small client sites to full-scale brand launches — and he delivers every single time.
Working with him behind the scenes is seamless. He just gets it — the pace, the standards, the pressure — and still manages to produce design work that elevates the brand and nails the strategy. Even with minimal direction, he brings projects to life with clarity, creativity, and real thought. Every project looks sexy, works beautifully, and lands exactly how it needs to for the client.
He’s more than a contractor — he’s an extension of our team.
Richard worked on the logo for my photography brand, and I was thoroughly impressed with the results.
From the very beginning, he took the time to understand my creative outlook and made sure the final design reflected exactly what I had in mind.
His attention to detail, thoughtful process, and ability to translate abstract ideas into a clean, professional identity really stood out.
The end result felt not only creatively aligned — it elevated how I show up to clients and audiences.
I would absolutely recommend Richard for any graphic design or brand identity work. His process is just as solid as his output.
I’ve known Richard for many years, and when it came time to develop the Focal Image brand and website, there was no question about who I wanted to work with. He brought clarity, creativity, and technical expertise to every stage of the process — from refining our brand identity to building a clean, impactful site that reflects who we are and what we do.
The result was more than just a “nice website” — it became a true representation of our brand values and a major leap forward in how we present ourselves to clients and collaborators.
Richard’s ability to blend thoughtful design with strategic execution is what makes him stand out — and why I continue to recommend him without hesitation.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the incredible service and tireless help with my website.
Even though this wasn’t a huge commercial project, Richard gave it the same care, commitment, and quality as any major client.
I’m truly grateful — and if you’re considering Lucidity, know this: they go out of their way to make it happen.
We’ve worked with other designers and developers in the past, but none have brought the same level of openness, flexibility, and real-time collaboration that Richard does. He’s not just talented — he’s tuned in. From the first call to final delivery, he’s responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in our success.
Every bit of feedback was met with care, clarity, and action — and the amount of effort he puts in behind the scenes never goes unnoticed. It’s rare to find someone who can balance creative excellence with technical precision while still being that easy to work with.
We’ll absolutely be sending more projects his way — he’s been outstanding.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Richard on several fast-paced, high-stakes projects — and I can confidently say his expertise has elevated every single one of them. From building our Paint Prime website from scratch to managing and maintaining both of our ecommerce platforms, he’s consistently delivered exceptional work. His attention to detail, deep understanding of web functionality, and commitment to top-tier performance made a huge impact.
What truly sets him apart is his ability to translate complex, technical challenges into simple, clear explanations — a skill that kept our entire team informed and confident every step of the way. He’s reliable, strategic, transparent, and always willing to go the extra mile. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
Working with Richard and Lucidity was a game-changer for Chilla. We tasked him with designing and developing a new website that reflected our brand’s growth — something clean, modern, fast, and easy to navigate for both consumers and wholesale clients.
What he delivered exceeded expectations. The new site not only looks great — it performs better, loads faster, and has directly contributed to an increase in sales and improved customer engagement. Our brand recognition has strengthened significantly as a result.
