Maison Jansen is an interior design house located in Paris. It was founded in 1880 by the Dutch Jean-Henri Jansen. Jansen House is considered the first global design firm to have made its name a brand, offering its services in Europe, Latin America, North America and the Middle East. In the early 1940s, Maison Jansen created its own workshops on 17000 m2 rue Saint Sabin in Paris. Throughout its history, the firm has used the traditional European style of drawing but has also followed the European trends in this field, including the Viennese Secession, Modernism and Art Deco, which were developed by the firm between 1920 and 1950. Under the direction of Boudin, Maison Jansen worked for the royal families of Belgium, Iran and Serbia but also for the White House under the administration of John F. Kennedy.
