Olivia King is an independent Creative Director with over 12 years of experience. Previously she was Head of Design at Eucalyptus, and Design Director at For The People. She specialises in branding, type design, and digital products — and while that might seem like a broad set of skills, this blend is what makes her unique.
What links this range of specialities is craft. In an age where design is increasingly generated, craft and creativity is what can’t be replicated. Liv’s depth of knowledge in each area means she sees beyond traditional boundaries in companies (product, marketing, and brand etc) and thrives in the overlaps and intersections.
Liv is committed to purpose-driven work, collaborating with founders and clients who aim to make a positive impact in the world and aspire to solve the planet’s hardest problems.
