About

Nice to meet you!

Find out a little more about me.

I’m Angela (most people call me Ange). As a Londoner, born and bred, I grew up with the sounds of Bow Bells ringing in my ears.

It was always clear to me that I wanted to have a career in art or design in some way – and what better place to start than my hometown? I studied Product Design at Central St Martins and my path led me to Graphic Design.

After roles in design agencies, corporate firms, reprographics, and publishing agencies, I decided to set up Lyons Creative. This year I’m celebrating 12 years in business.

Lyons Creative is owned and managed by me Angela Lyons. I am a freelance graphic designer who creates clear and engaging designs. I offer graphic design services from initial design concepts to final produced graphics. Designs include websites, magazines, brochures, branding, logos, social media graphics, event design and marketing materials for startups, corporates, and charities. In fact, I work with all industries, so if you don't see what you need on the list, please call and let me know how I can help.

You may be asking what can I do for you and your business.

Problem: It can be tough to find the right designer for your business, especially when you're starting out. You need someone who understands your vision and can help you bring it to life. You might need branding or a website - get in touch!

Solution: I'm a graphic designer with over 20 years of experience working with businesses of all sizes. I have a fun and professional tone of voice that will help your business stand out from the competition. My goal is to create designs that represent your brand and help you achieve your marketing goals.

Recently, I've also started writing. You can find more about me and what I've been up to here on my blog, which also includes writing about design and what inspires me.

Hello! I do love colour but don’t worry I can work to your guidelines. Promise it won’t be psychedelic (unless you want it to be).

Three facts about me.

 

1

I have a fear of certain shapes.

The medical term is Trypophobia, my skin goes cold if I see uniform shapes with holes.

2

I like a challenge.

I’ve completed a London marathon and recently my first Triathlon. Whilst the day itself was fun the training was hard.

3

I love to learn.

Not just around my work but also in my personal life. I’m an eternal student.

Be kind

During the year I offer my services via a pro bono project. In the past, I have worked with a housing charity, schools, and non-profit organisations. The work consists of logo design, book design or design direction and feedback on a website.

Let me help you with your design brief.

"Angela is the creative graphic designer everyone needs, but she is also much more than that. She shows a sophisticated, instinctive grasp of whatever the subject matter at hand may be."

Are you a freelancer?

Working for yourself is rewarding in so many ways. From being the master of your own time to working for the clients that you can choose.

But you must manage your own business too! How many hats do you wear? From doing your accounts to being your own social media manager.

I have created a simple checklist for parts of your biz to focus on and the jobs that might need doing.
