Inspirations
In their more formative years they were inspired by their grandfather, Alfred Paulsen, who was also an illustrator and their father who spent a lot of his free time making wooden goods. Stating that "The desire to create, and the potential to do it with precision and imagination, was simply ingrained in us".

Finding punk rock when they were teens broaden their aspirations and passion towards music, as well. Creating bands and even touring around the nation.

History
They moved to Seattle, Washington where the company is now based in 2000 because they wanted to pursue careers in both design and music. They created their first legitimate design company Asterik Studio and spent five years working there. Allowing them to expand their portfolios while their new founded metal band also gained a lot of traction.

In 2006 they had a mutual split with Asterik Studio and with more passion for illustration and focus on their own print designs they launched Invisible Creature.
