Creative that comes together
Hello, I'm Diana Thornley, an award winning freelance advertising and design professional and Creative Director of Magnet. With experience at many of Melbourne's top tier advertising agencies and boutique design studios, I have worked across most categories, from blue chip to government to SMEs.
Professional, quick and extremely versatile, I have been featured in 'Desktop Magazine' and produced award-winning work for some of Australia's largest advertisers, across FMCG, travel & tourism, branding, retail, B2B, automotive, fashion, arts, DM, packaging, Reward and Recognition and the corporate sector.
​
Establishing Magnet in1996, I worked in publishing and multimedia (heading up the Coles Myer dot-com Interactive Design Department) to move back into print design and advertising once the boom was over. I then took a 4 year full time detour to become Senior Art director overseeing a mid size studio.
