Torben Skov (TS)

1947 –

Torben Skov is educated at The Graphic School of Art. After graduating in 1970, he has had an extremely productive career. Torben has created more than 1000 book covers, 30 posters, 25 stamps, four illustrated books and countless drawings and has, since 1971, conducted own studio.

The need to make something completely different from the graphic art, made Torben Skov look into the furniture design in the 1980s. His father was a furniture engineer and the inspiration for furniture was obvious. In total, Torben Skov has designed 35 chairs, tables, benches and sofas.

In addition to several awards for his stamps among other things, and a first prize in Japan in a furniture competition, Torben Skov also had a separate exhibition at Designmuseum Danmark in 2007.
