Matthew Blain

“People are the most valuable asset in your business. Start with them. Consider their physical, social and mental needs and design to that. Performance and productivity will follow.”

Matt has worked in several of our international studios and is now based in London, where he’s the regional leader for Hassell in the UK and Europe. 

He’s been behind some of the most successful workplaces we’ve designed worldwide. On those projects Matt has demonstrated the powerful impact design can have on business performance and culture.

Matt has a way with making people feel instantly at ease, and giving them his undivided attention and dedication. Those qualities make him an excellent leader for design teams – and a great partner to our diverse range of clients

He’s passionate about the process of exploration in design – asking questions, testing out ideas and striving for something that surpasses everyone’s expectations.
