Andersson & Voll is a Norwegian design studio based in Oslo, founded by Torbjorn Andersson and Espen Voll.

The pair both studied at the Bergen Academy of Art and Design and the Oslo National Academy of Art and in 2009 Andersson & Voll was born.
The main focus of Andersson & Voll's designs is to create products that have soul, they produce emotionally driven designs and have won numerous awards throughout the years, including the Red Dot and iF Awards, as well as Best Designs and Best Designers of the year.
"A good product builds and expands on tradition while simultaneously breaking the rules of said tradition. Modifications and elements of surprise, even changes that are less radical, stimulate thought and reflection, also who may not hold a particular interest in design. This tiny second of reflection is the window of opportunity where we can communicate with the users and that’s what we strive to tap into." - Andersson & Voll
