About me. 




Kia Ora I’m Liv, a designer based in Tāmaki Makaurau Aotearoa! I have a strong sense of home and find most of my inspiration surrounded by tall grass and birdsong. This everlong relationship with our planet speaks through my work. Honest, organic, and grounded in the world around me.



Areas of expertise.



My core creative specialties. The three key design disciplines where I truly excel, and the areas in which I’m most confident bringing concepts to life with skill and purpose.

1.
Portrait illustration.
Illustration is the heartbeat of my practice, a space where instinct and imagination collide. It’s how I process the world and express it with intent, often blending organic elements and personal symbolism. Whether digital or hand-drawn, this is where my work feels most alive. Illustration continues to ground my design identity and remains the lens through which I explore most creative challenges.
2.
Branding.
I’m drawn to branding for its power to tell authentic, emotive stories. I love crafting visual identities that go beyond aesthetics, brands with soul, narrative depth, and a strong sense of purpose. From tone of voice to visual language, I aim to shape brands that feel lived-in, expressive, and human. Branding is where design meets personality, and where my strategic and creative instincts align.
3.
3D & code.
While not my primary focus, I’m confidently capable in foundational 3D and web-based tools. I enjoy working with Blender for basic animation and sculpting, and I can get by with HTML, CSS, and Java-based coding for creating functional, visually engaging experiences. This technical fluency allows me to bring designs to life and push projects beyond the flat canvas when needed.
