About the studio
We make brands people keep around.
Halden started in 2015 at a kitchen table in Grünerløkka. Today we are eight designers, strategists and producers across Oslo and Stockholm.
- Years in practice
- 11
- Brands shipped
- 140+
We believe good branding is mostly editing: fewer colours, fewer words, fewer things on the box. What is left should feel inevitable.
Process
Nine weeks, four phases.
Every project follows the same rhythm. You see real work in context from the second week.
What we value
Principles we actually use.
Small on purpose
Eight people, four projects at a time. You always talk to the people doing the work.
Calm over clever
We design brands that are easy to live with in year three, not just launch day.
Made to be handed over
Every system ships with templates and a guide your team can actually use.
Honest materials
Fewer inks, recycled stock and structures that flatten for the post.
