universal design consultants

We are empathetic, driven advocates for research-based design.

Asylum takes an integrated approach to design to understand our clients’ DNA and solve their problems, enabling the co-design of built environments with genuine impact.

We use Universal Design strategies that combine human-centred design with psychology, occupational therapy, acoustic engineering, specialist lighting, haptics, optical & thermal comfort, and interior design.

The benefits? Purposeful, dignified and respectful spaces that are entirely inclusive, celebrate individuality, and lay the foundation for a supported and engaged community.

Our Founder

“At Asylum, our mission is to respond to the needs of our vulnerable community members through sensory design.

The built environment is a tool that can be used to communicate. It can be a manifestation of brand and identity, it can express personality, and it can certainly create a feeling.

Holding physical space is one of the largest investments for any organisation, so I believe it should work hard and with purpose to earn its keep.”
