About Us

Liz Fazakarley - Ford Design

Liz Ford is a creative all-rounder with over 25+ years of experience working in leading advertising agencies across Sydney. With a background as both an art director and designer, she thrives on the creative challenge of generating fresh, exciting ideas. Liz holds a Bachelor of Design in Visual Communications and completed AWARD School in 2003.

Her love for art began in early childhood—well before design became her profession. “I’ve had a passion for art since I was tiny, long before I graduated from finger painting. As a child growing up in the UK and travelling across Europe, my parents took me through countless art galleries. I can still vividly remember the paintings and sculptures that filled me with wonder.”

That early fascination naturally evolved into a career. During her design degree, Liz focused on photography, printmaking, illustration, art history, and graphic design. She brings a sharp eye for visual detail, and a love of working with fashion, colour, imagery, textures, and type.

Outside of work, Liz is inspired by the joyful and beautiful things in life. She’s happiest spending time with her daughter, family and friends—and finds delight in a long list of simple pleasures: peony roses, champagne, fairy lights, party dresses, paddling in the sea, and anything pink. She finds magic in the little details, and that spark shines through in every project she touches.

Testimonials

We where thrilled with our beautiful wedding invitations and received many complements when we sent them to our guests. Liz worked with us to design all the elements for our wedding from the butterfly place holders floating on wine glasses to our order of service.

Megan Durry   

Liz did an absolutely beautiful job of designing an elegant invite for our daughter's christening which captured perfectly the theme and feel of the day.  We were so thrilled that we asked Liz to design a party invite for our Neverland party and coordinating silhouette decorations  and the results were simply stunning and hugely admired by all our guests.  She is obviously an extremely talented designer but she is also super-efficient and wonderful to deal with and really goes the extra mile to ensure your expectations are surpassed in every way.  I cannot recommend Liz highly enough.
