Hayward & Co. founder Liz Hayward loves working with new clients to unlock the potential of their homes and living spaces.

As a trusted name in the industry, Liz and her team have cultivated a reputation for excellence, crafting beautiful interiors that stand the test of time.

Based on her instinctive ability to see the possibilities of any space she enters, Liz has developed a design process that is as calm and considered as the interiors she ultimately creates.

Combining the many snippets of inspiration she collects from encounters each day with the tastes and input of her clients, Liz designs timeless interiors that reflect the unique personas of the people that inhabit them.

Liz loves spending weekends away with her young family exploring homeware boutiques and finding unique pieces for her clients.


 Liz’s work and skill of creating beautiful spaces was recently recognised when she was awarded a top finalist position in the Home Beautiful - 50 Most Beautiful Rooms competition.
