Team Lola Design
Introducing Framanda (Frank & Amanda)
Our story
Starting out as a studio artist working for a number of leading brands in both fashion and greeting cards, Amanda aka Lola was keen to develop her own style further and decided to go freelance. Frank meanwhile was ready to break out of the corporate machine having spent over ten years working internationally on global brands. Together they dreamt of creating a brand from scratch and decided to take a leap into the unknown and thus Lola Design was born.
From early conversations around the kitchen table, Lola Design has evolved into a boutique producer of premium greeting cards, art and stationery items, achieving critical acclaim through multiple industry award nominations.
Now entering its forth year, every Lola Design item is designed in house with the aim of producing the most beautifully designed items made locally.
All greeting cards and art are printed on sustainably sourced FSC papers and where possible our paper is sourced in the UK from a mill in the Lake District which has been visited personally by us.
