Hans-Agne Jakobsson

Hans-Agne Jakobsson (1919-2009) was a Swedish interior and furniture designer that is particularly well known for his beautiful soft glow lighting. Most active between the 50's and 70's, which were known as the golden years of Scandinavian design, he was influenced by an organic modern' approach that added warmth to otherwise typically starker modern interiors. Jakobsson's diverse range of lighting illustrates not only his great use of materials, but also an in-depth understanding of how light functions.
