Jacob Jensen was among the last great Danish designers belonging to the golden era of the 1950s known as Danish Modern. He was the first Dane to train as an industrial designer and is considered a pioneer in Danish corporate history. Christian Holmsted Olesen, Curator at The Danish Museum of Art & Design, writes that with regard to his design historical importance, several of Jacob Jensen’s works can be seen as “sophisticated extracts of 20th century design”. Jacob Jensen was for many Danes the very symbol of good design, mainly due to his work for B&O.

JACOB JENSEN DESIGN I HEJLSKOV

Clean surfaces, which upon closer investigation reveal a rich inner life. Clear lines and sharp edges inviting investigation. A delight to the eye. Calm acceptance in the mind. An invitation to embrace.
This is not a description of our design work, though it could be. It is a description of the view from the rather remarkable house in Denmark where Jacob Jensen Design has been established for more than a quarter of a century. The view is so calm and clear that it continues to inspire to our designers around the world.
