Today’s social platforms and professional networks aren’t built for creatives. What once felt like community has splintered, scattered across apps and websites, diluted by noise, ads, and algorithms. Spaces that promised connection now prioritise virality over value, and creators are left behind.
Finding like-minded artists, designers, and collaborators has become a full-time job. Building an audience takes hours of unpaid labour across multiple platforms, only for engagement to vanish the moment you stop posting. Creativity has become performance. And it’s exhausting.
At Lylac, we believe that shouldn’t be the norm.
We’re building a home for creative people — a focused, dedicated space to grow your network, engage with your community, and build your presence, all in one place.
Lylac is a centralised hub for creative activity online. A platform designed around the way creatives actually work — not the way algorithms expect us to. Here, your profile is more than a feed. It’s your studio, your archive, your digital portfolio. No more juggling domains, building personal websites, or chasing fleeting traffic.
We believe creativity thrives in connection. That inspiration, collaboration, and opportunity should be within reach — not behind paywalls or follower counts. Whether you're here to find your people, showcase your practice, or simply exist in a space that gets you, Lylac was made for this moment.
By creatives, for creatives.
WHAT MAKES LYLAC DIFFERENT?
Lylac isn’t just another social platform — it’s a creative ecosystem. Every part of the experience is intentionally connected, built to reflect how creative people actually work, think, and collaborate.
As both a creative and the founder of Lylac, I’ve struggled with two things for most of my career: sharing my practice in a way that feels true to me, and finding the right people to connect with.
But they’re not different. They're one and the same. And that’s exactly where Lylac comes in.
Lylac seamlessly merges the personal expression of social media with the strategic value of creative networking — two worlds that have always felt disconnected, but make perfect sense together when you’re a designer, artist or architect trying to grow. You shouldn't need five different platforms just to be seen, stay inspired, or find your next collaborator.
Here, everything works in harmony.
From fashion designers in Seoul to illustrators in London, from architects to animators — Lylac is designed to help you find your people. Follow their work. Save what inspires you. Reach out. Collaborate.
And you can do it all in a space that puts your safety and autonomy first. Lylac is encrypted by default. No extra fees for basic privacy, no hidden settings — just a safe space to be yourself and connect with others who get it.
This isn’t social media as you know it.
It’s not a marketplace.
It’s not a feed for content you didn’t ask for.
Lylac is the digital home creative people have always needed — built with care, clarity, and a deep understanding of how creativity really works.
