A Small, Senior Studio for Brands Worth Remembering.
Halden started in Oslo in 2018 on one hunch: a small team of senior people makes braver work than a big agency. Two studios and twenty-two people later, it still holds.
What We Believe
- 01
Drawn Before It’s Designed
Every idea starts as a pencil sketch on the long table in Oslo or Lisbon. If it can’t survive being drawn badly, it won’t survive being built well.
Pencil first, pixels second - 02
Dates That Hold
We plan in two-week blocks and turn down work that would break them. You get a launch date in the first meeting, and it doesn’t move.
Two-week blocks, fixed launch dates - 03
Built to Be Handed Over
We judge the work by how it behaves on an ordinary Monday, not how it looks in the case study. If your team can’t run it without us, it isn’t finished.
Finished means your team can run it
- founded in Oslo
- studios: Oslo and Lisbon
- designers, writers and engineers
- nationalities around the lunch table
The People You’ll Actually Meet
Eight of the twenty-two, split between Oslo and Lisbon. The people who sketch your first idea are the people who ship the last file.
