Thank you
Jesper Pedersen
Jesper Pedersen, a Danish architect, began his career building commercial projects in Edinburgh, Scotland and London, and Ascot, England. While attending University in Denmark, Jesper was profoundly influenced and inspired by Danish design legends- Arne Jacobsen, Jorgen Utzon, and Henning Larsen. After graduating near the top of his class, Jesper joined the well-regarded Danish architect and development firm – JFP, where he designed and managed both residential and commercial projects. Having established a proven track record in the industry, Jesper was asked to join one of the largest construction companies in Denmark – Hoffman and Son. As their youngest Senior Project Manager, he successfully managed multimillion-dollar commercial projects throughout Copenhagen.
While on holiday in Costa Rica, Jesper met his future wife, a California native who prompted his relocation to San Diego, CA, and the founding of DNA. Jesper has spent his time building DNA by working with both the trade and the end client not only in the US but in Mexico, Europe, and Asia as well. He has worked with some of the top design teams and furniture manufacturers in the world – firms such as the Pininfarina Design Group in Mexico City and Fritz Hansen in Denmark.
As DNA has evolved into the design firm it is today, Jesper continues to bring his architectural and project management experience, as well as his style, into the world of interior design. Jesper is best known for integrating his unique design ascetic and expertise with his client’s tastes, personality, and budget.
With over 31 years in the design and building industry,
Jesper’s passion for design shows in all of his work – as an architect, designer, project manager, and entrepreneur.
