I’m Nichola, graphic designer and founder of Paper Bistro.

Paper Bistro is a Lockdown baby. A creative outlet and stabilising project during an uncertain time that gave me a focus away from… all of it. Over the past 3 years ‘the Bistro’ has grown out of being simply a stationery brand into a place for my creativity in all forms. NJLanzonDesign showcases my professional Graphic Design work for the likes of Bishop’s Stortford College, Hotel Chocolat, Winged Boots, and others, as well as personal projects and experiments, just for fun. The @Paper.Bistro Instagram account will give you more of a personal insight into my life and creative process. I also curate a monthly playlist purely for the joy of it. Search ‘Songs for the Bistro’ on Spotify.

Recently I have been described by complete strangers as ‘jolly’ and ‘cute’, which, although odd, I take as a compliment and affirmation that I’m slowly working my way towards my goal of simply being one of life’s good people.
