Early exposure to the world of furniture shaped his interest in design and later led him to study furniture design in Copenhagen. There, he was taught by lecturers who themselves had been students of Poul Kj\u00e6rholm, an experience he describes as both inspiring and formative.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, Per has worked across a wide range of projects, including hotels, restaurants, retail environments, and furniture design. Today, his focus is increasingly on furniture as a standalone discipline, where ideas, materials, and longevity are central.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nature as a starting point<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Tira collection is rooted in a clear natural reference:<br \/>\n\u201cTira is inspired by nature, with a form based on the idea of a bird\u2019s nest supported by a network of branches. I wanted to create a design that feels both organic and durable, while maintaining a calm and inviting expression.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The result is a design language that balances structure and softness \u2014 expressive, yet restrained.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A shared Nordic mindset<\/strong><br \/>\nPer\u2019s collaboration with Skargaarden grew from a shared appreciation of Nordic clarity and material honesty.<br \/>\n\u201cSkargaarden represents a distinct Nordic expression, with genuine materials and high quality, combined with an innovative and forward-looking attitude. Our collaboration has been very inspiring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For him, the connection lies not only in aesthetics, but in values: durability, simplicity, and a quiet confidence in form.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Designing beyond trends<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen it comes to longevity, Per\u2019s approach is grounded in clarity of intention rather than trends.<br \/>\n\u201cFor me, it\u2019s about the expression being rooted in a clear idea and intention, rather than what is fashionable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This philosophy runs through his work, where each detail is considered part of a larger whole, and nothing is left without purpose.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outdoor spaces as living spaces<\/strong><br \/>\nPer believes outdoor environments should be treated with the same care as interior spaces.<br \/>\n\u201cI think the terrace should be treated as a room in the home. It\u2019s about creating more welcoming environments as a natural extension of the indoor space.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He describes outdoor furniture as something that should support everyday life rather than dominate it \u2014 adaptable enough for quiet moments alone as well as larger gatherings with friends.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A quiet presence<\/strong><br \/>\nAt the core of Tira is a desire to create something understated yet expressive.<br \/>\n\u201cI hope Tira conveys a sense of calm and clarity. Restrained, yet expressive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The intention is not to demand attention, but to form a quiet framework for presence and interaction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking ahead<\/strong><br \/>\nAlongside Tira, Per is currently preparing a new chair design in collaboration with Skargaarden, set to launch during 3daysofdesign in Copenhagen. His ambition moving forward is to continue developing complete furniture families, collections that feel connected, coherent, and long-lasting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to continue designing an entire furniture series, where different pieces evolve within the same family and belong together as a whole. It is both challenging and rewarding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21168\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skargaarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Designer-Per-Waern-Jensen.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"383\" height=\"383\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">About Per Waern Jensen<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">Per Waern Jensen is a Swedish designer celebrated for his dedication to craftsmanship and detail.
