Hans Agne Jakobsson

The great Swedish designer, Hans-Agne Jakobsson(1919-2009) was attracted by light.

Starting in the 1950s and for more than 30 years he created original lamps that revolutionised Swedish lighting design. With a background in cabinet making and the world of architecture, shaping light with the use of materials and colours came naturally to him. Hans-Agne Jakobsson’s signature is a soft, warm, subdued light that is extremely pleasing to the eye.
