Jessica Lanyadoo
Astrologer and Podcaster
I came to Cecilia with a pretty challenging and multifarious aesthetic. They were not only able to streamline it, but they were also able to give me exactly what I wanted and more! I really love my website. Chef's kiss + 10 stars!
Araxie
Co-founder, LVNDR Health
I cannot recommend working with Cecilia more. With a deep understanding and a genuine passion for our work, the team worked tirelessly alongside us to deliver on the deadline and I could not be more grateful for the kindness and support during our collaboration.
Cat
Founder & Consultant
I want to extend immense gratitude and admiration to Cecilia and the remarkable team. They've empowered me to breathe life into my ideas and transform thoughts into a platform I'm super proud of. They don't just build websites; they cultivate an empowering journey.
Chris
Consultant, Womankind Worldwide
Thanks for your incredible patience, flexibility, willingness to go with ideas, expertise and professionalism. We have a client-supplier relationship, but it hasn't really felt like that kind of thing at all. I'm really proud of what we have produced together.

I have never been so excited by web design – they had such an intuitive and informed grasp of where I was coming from, what I wanted/needed and how to portray that through the website. Their ability to get across necessary information whilst attending to identity and narrative has been a delight to discover.
FAQs
I work with feminist and LGBTQ+ organisations, social enterprises, and values-led founders—especially teams doing advocacy, community work, education, or public-facing services. If your work needs to be inclusive, accessible, and credible, we’ll likely be a good fit.
I help you make good decisions, faster—and make sure the work holds together. That can include clarifying your message, setting a visual direction, shaping a digital experience, aligning stakeholders, and guiding designers/developers so delivery is consistent, accessible, and on-brief.
Both. Studio Lutalica is my core practice, and I also take on selected direct engagements (often advisory, fractional support, workshops, or accessibility-focused work). If you’re not sure which route fits, the best next step is an enquiry with a short summary of what you need.
Creative direction and brand strategy; digital strategy and content structure; accessibility and inclusive comms (including WCAG-informed design); design management (process, feedback loops, delivery support); workshops, talks, guest lectures, and training.
Depending on the project, I can do either—but I’m most often brought in for leadership: setting direction, shaping the system, improving accessibility, and supporting delivery across a team.
Yes. I can support through an accessibility audit, practical recommendations, and training for your team so accessibility becomes part of day-to-day decision-making (not a one-off fix).
Yes, if your work is aligned with the same values (equity, inclusion, social impact) and you’re committed to accessibility and respectful practice.
Fractional means ongoing, part-time support—for example, a set number of days per month. It’s useful if you need consistent senior input (creative leadership, accessibility guidance, decision support) without hiring full-time.
It depends on scope. Workshops can be a single session; audits are often 2–4 weeks; brand/digital direction is commonly 4–12 weeks. I’ll confirm a timeline once we’ve scoped what you need.
A short brief is enough to start: what you’re trying to achieve, who it’s for, what already exists (links/docs), your timeline, and any budget range (if you have one).
Pricing is based on scope and the type of engagement (workshop, audit, project, or fractional). I’ll propose a clear scope with deliverables and an agreed rate before anything begins.
I prioritise work that supports feminist and LGBTQ+ communities, and I occasionally take on reduced-fee or pro-bono support where it has clear impact and is realistic to deliver well. If that’s what you need, mention it upfront and I’ll tell you what’s possible.
Yes—talks, panels, workshops, and guest teaching are a core part of my practice. If you share the audience, format, and goal of the session, I’ll suggest an angle and outline.
