Jacob Jensen founded his studio in 1958 and

over the following decades developed the form

language that changed our view of how hi-fi

systems, telephones, watches and many other

products can look. The contribution made him

one of the most recognised designers with a vast

number of prizes and exhibitions, including a solo

exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)

in New York.

In terms of design history, he gained importance

because his ground breaking form unites two main

streams of 20th century design. On the one hand,

the European Bauhaus tradition with its minimalist

“Less is more” and its modernist “Form follows

function”. On the other hand, the American design

icon Raymond Loewy’s consumer-oriented

MAYAprinciple:“Most Advanced Yet Acceptable”.

JacobJensen’s international style comprises of the

fact that he creates an ultra-modern minimalist form

language with a very high audience appeal.

Since the generation change in 1990, Timothy

Jacob Jensen established the JACOB JENSEN

trademark and clarified the universal potential

of the form language by expanding it into many

new product areas. In addition to watches and

telephones, other JACOB JENSEN products include

eyewear, timers, weather stations, smoke alarms

and entire kitchens. This contribution, which may

be understood as a far reaching creative challenge

of the form language, has kept the studio at a

high, internationally award-winning level.

Through their common form language, Jacob Jensen

and Timothy Jacob Jensen prove that the mass

produced products which surround our daily life, can

be sympathetic towards us.

They can stand in our living rooms, kitchens and

bathrooms and communicate a wealth of ideas,

humour, elegance and pleasure in use. They can be

gifts of quiet and simplicity. They can be a pleasure

to use and live with on a daily basis.
