Hi, I’m Sophia Sky, a graphic designer and lettering artist based in Worthing, near Brighton. I specialise in brand identity, book cover design, hand lettering, mural design, and motion graphics for arts, culture, and heritage clients. I’ve led teams as Lead Graphic Designer at Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival, designed book covers for Hodder & Stoughton and others, and run Lyrical Lettering Co, growing my Instagram with a year-long daily lettering challenge that gained 30k followers. When I’m not designing, you’ll find me lettering, playing guitar, making pottery, or painting. I love collaborating with creatives across live events, exhibitions, and screen projects. My portfolio includes live scribing, murals featured on Interior Design Masters, and freelance work for BBC, RNLI, Jodrell Bank Space Observatory, Macallan Whisky, The Royal Marines, and various publishers. I’m passionate about arts and culture and bring curiosity, craft, and calm to every project.
