Jensen & Skodvin Architects is a Norwegian architectural firm established in 1995 by Jan Olav Jensen (born 1959) and Børre Skodvin (born 1960). Their work has been noted and they have received awards in the field.[1]

Both partners were educated at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (1985/1988) and hold part-time positions there. They have previously worked at NSB Architects. Their office has been involved in the Norwegian Public Roads Administration tourist project at Sognefjellsvegen (along with others).[2]

Jensen & Skodvin "follows a design philosophy where the final shape is a result of natural, selected and specified terms. The Liasanden picnic area and the railing on Videseter are simple examples of this"
