Sebastian Jansson

Sebastian Jansson is an emerging and versatile designer. His nascent vision is both contemporary and international in its expression of form, material and presentation. He has participated in a range of activities that have already defined him as one of the bright sparks of Finland for a generation of young designers compelled to escape the shadow of Scandinavian modernism. Jansson studied industrial design at Aalto University, the Milan Polythechnic and ENSCI-Les Ateliers. Today Jansson is based in Helsinki, directing design of products, spatial environments and branding. Jansson headed the industrial design of Genie and a complete makeover of Tregren’s brand identity. The gentle angular form, appropriate dimensions and redefined product architecture create a precise entity of components. Incorporating sustainable materials, innovative features, effortless usability and contemporary aesthetics make the lamp Genie a solid and sound product.
