Marrying art and commerce
with the aim of excelling at both.

Asylum takes a multi-disciplinary creative approach by integrating branding and spatial design. Since our inception in 1999, we have won a wide array of awards and also been featured in numerous publications across the globe. Our unique understanding of commerce and art has resulted in exponential success for our clients. Other than our serious work ethics, we are also known for having a quirky sense of humor. Asylum is probably best defined as an unconventional maverick in the creative sphere.

Michelle began her career unknowingly at Asylum in 2000 upon graduating from RMIT (Melbourne), initially hired as an intern for a month, she became the intern that never left. As the Account Director at Asylum she has managed many multi-disciplinary projects, ranging from Branding, Print, Interior to Web. Michelle is also the key person managing most of Asylum's international projects, and when she is not busy accumulating krisflyer miles, she can be found force-feeding her colleagues food and alcohol.
