After 20 years in the London media circus they ran away to create their own, small but perfectly formed media empire in the rural idyll of Sherborne in Dorset. Mission

Cool ideas to refresh your business
Company Overview
When inspiration is needed, we step back from the mayhem, grab a frozen favourite and lose ourselves in the moment. Over the years we’ve been lucky enough to have joined forces with some wonderfully talented and energetic people who we’re proud to call our colleagues and friends, who all share a passion and enthusiasm for the world of communication. Ten years on, it's just as fun as it's always be... See More

Description

The simplest way to see if we can help or not is to give us a ring or if you're in the area just pop in - the kettle is always on. TriffSkep

Print it out.

We run a digital agency.
We build websites.
We work online all day.

And yet...

We still print things out.

Because sometimes a design that looks perfect on screen suddenly feels too busy on paper.

A sentence that seemed completely fine develops three unnecessary words.

A headline loses its confidence.

And a typo that has survived six people and seventeen rounds of proofing somehow becomes enormous the moment it’s printed.

There’s something about seeing work away from the screen that makes you look at it differently.

Perhaps it’s old-fashioned.
Perhaps it’s wasteful if you do it too often.

But for the important stuff, we’re still fans.

Sometimes the best creative tool in the studio is a printer and a red pen.

Shiny new shoes.

Comically large school jumpers.

Pencil cases where every felt tip has a lid.

Parents waving goodbye at the school gates with barely disguised joy after six long weeks.

There’s something about the start of a new academic year that rubs off on the rest of us too. September still feels like a fresh start.

New notebooks. Clearer desks. New ideas. A sudden urge to get organised.

We may not need a new pencil case anymore.

But we’re still quite tempted.

Fresh page. Sharp pencil. Anything could happen.

Meet Janine, our Finance Director and the calm, clever force behind Lolly’s finances.

Since joining us, Janine has completely transformed the financial side of the business, bringing clarity, confidence and an incredible depth of experience to everything she does. She is far too modest to say it herself, but she is exceptionally well qualified, hugely capable and, quite honestly, we don’t know what we’d do without her.

Away from the spreadsheets, Janine can usually be found planning a trip to her apartment in Spain, visiting family in Florida, playing pickleball, walking Otto, decorating her new home or getting stuck into the garden. As though that wasn’t enough, she has also just completed a degree in Psychology.
Quietly impressive, endlessly reliable and an absolutely essential part of Team Lolly. We feel very lucky to have her.

Tiny things. Big feelings.

Every studio has them.

The tiny things that probably don’t matter to anyone else, but absolutely matter to us.

Bad kerning.
A logo stretched out of proportion.
Five different font sizes fighting for attention.
An apostrophe wandering into a plural where it has no
business being.

And, of course, the phrase:
“Can we make the logo bigger?”

We know.

There are bigger problems in the world.

But sometimes caring about the small things is what makes the big things feel right.

What’s your completely unreasonable professional hill to die on?

Birthdays at Lolly used to be quite a big thing.

There were cakes. Drinks. Decorations. Balloons. Desks made gloriously impractical for the day.

Then, a couple of years ago, we changed things.

We decided everyone should have their birthday off.

Because however much we love our Lolly family, we had to admit that most people would probably rather spend their birthday with their actual family and friends than sitting in the studio while we sing badly at them.

So now, birthdays mean a day off and a card signed by the whole team.

But every now and then, we wonder whether we’ve lost a little bit of the magic.

Was the fuss part of what made the day feel special?
Or is having the whole day to yourself the better present?

We’re still not entirely sure.

What would you choose - cake and chaos in the office, or your birthday off?

We’d love to know.

Meet Clare!

We’re incredibly lucky to have Clare leading our creative team at Lolly.

Before joining us, Clare was Creative Director at John Brown, creating beautiful magazines and brand experiences for some of the world’s best-known names. That wealth of experience, combined with an incredible eye for detail, means our clients are in very safe hands.

When she’s not in the studio, you’ll probably find her...

🥖 Baking bread or making fresh pasta (just don’t offer her avocado... she’s oddly allergic!)

🎨 At her art club or planning the next mini Grand Designs project for her cottage.

🌱 At the allotment (although she insists self-sufficiency isn’t on the cards!).

🌊 Barefoot by the sea, swimming whatever the weather, before rewarding herself with a well-earned glass of wine.

🏙️ Dreaming of New York, while still having a soft spot for London.

Most of all, Clare believes great creativity comes from living a creative life.

We’re delighted she’s chosen to spend that life with us.

Left is right.

Happy International Left-Handers Day to the surprisingly large handful of lefties at Lolly.

We’re in pretty good company, Leonardo da Vinci, Barack Obama and plenty of other rather brilliant people have all approached the world from the left.

Is it a coincidence? Probably.

But we quite like the idea that sometimes looking at things from a slightly different angle is exactly where the best ideas begin.

So, here’s to the left-handers, the different thinkers and everyone who refuses to do things in quite the obvious way.

Think differently. Even if it means a bit of ink smudging.

Love where we live 💕

A huge congratulations to Sherborne on being named Dorset Town of Culture 2027, a well-deserved recognition of the town’s creativity, heritage and vibrant cultural scene.

We’re incredibly proud to have played a small, but colourful, part in its story, working alongside inspiring organisations including Sherborne Pride, The Sherborne, Vineyards and The Wilde Story.

We can’t wait to see what 2027 has in store for our lovely town. Congratulations to everyone who helped make this happen!
