About

Lime Creative is the studio of independent designer Sharon Leslie.

Based in Cape Town and working with clients around the world, Sharon brings a thoughtful, collaborative approach to every project. While working independently, she teams up with trusted collaborators when projects call for it.

Who

Sharon Leslie started working as an independent designer in the UK in 2004 as Lime Creative, making contacts that presented incredible opportunities. She relocated to Cape Town in 2018.

Raised in South Africa, Sharon graduated from WITS Tech (now Johannesburg University), where she studied Graphic Design. She started her career working in advertising, first for Ogilvy, followed by TBWA and Young & Rubicam.

When an opportunity to work in the UK arose, she was able to make the change from advertising to design she had been looking for.

Sharon has worked in the UK and South Africa, and for clients in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and Dubai.
