Hesselbrand is an international architectural studio established by Martin Brandsdal, Magnus Casselbrant and Jesper Henriksson in 2014, with offices in London and Oslo. Since its establishment Hesselbrand has become internationally recognised as a driving force within a new generation of designers dedicated to defining a contemporary approach to architecture.
Hesselbrand’s work include a wide range of arts, cultural, hospitality and residential projects, spanning a range of scales from furniture, interiors and temporary installations to permanent buildings.

The founders have taught their design philosophy at the prestigious Architectural Association in London and are currently teaching at the London School of Architecture and Oslo School of Architecture. Completed projects include the exhibition design of the 2016 British Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale, a fine art gallery in London (Soho Revue Gallery), design and creative direction of a music festival (The Tower), a prefabricated row house model for co-living (Rooms House), a concept for a number of flexible work and cultural spaces in London, and a housing scheme for the intergenerational homes (with Pegasus Life).
