Louis Poulsen: Albertslund Post, 7 24

Born and raised in Copenhagen, Jens
Møller-Jensen completed medical and
technical instrument engineer training in
1955, and graduated as an architect from
the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in
1964. After heading up the Royal Danish
Academy’s workshop, he founded his
own design office in 1967.

Over the years, Møller-Jensen has
created many industrial designs,
including electronic instruments and
television sets for Bang & Olufsen,
navigational instruments for SHIPMATE,
and insulin appliances for Novo Nordisk
A/S. He was involved in the development
of the Danish State Railways’ state-of-
the-art IC3 train, and has worked with
graphical design such as signposts and
boards for the Danish Highway Authority
and a system of signposts for the Danish
State Railways. Since 1995, Jensen’s
ergonomically designed walking stick has
been a part of the collection of the
Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Across the board, Møller-Jensen’s work
is characterised by his craftsmanship
and ability to work three-dimensionally,
creating extraordinary 1:1 models that
give the decision-maker an authentic
sense of the product.
