“Our homes are the foundation of our quality of life”
Christian Jorgensen has been at the intersection of design, architecture and technology for nearly 50 years.
Handed his first T-square and triangle when he was six, Christian has spent much of his life in the pursuit of great design and the technology that supports it. It’s his passion and inspiration.
Christian was mentored by a world famous designer working on world-class homes for clients of great renown. A native San Franciscan, he and his brother Finn started restoring homes and vintage sailboats in their teens, later they competed in classic racing “woodies” sailboats in the open waters of the San Francisco Bay.
They collaborated together at the architectural firm, Halcyon Homes. The firm developed properties, designed homes and interiors for numerous well known clients, including Steve Jobs, Sugar Ray Lenard, as well as doing several of Joe Montana’s estates in Silicon Valley, Napa Valley, and Kansas City.
Christian’s passion for design and innovation led him to follow the burgeoning growth of computers and visualization software in the Silicon Valley. His passion for communicating the virtual drove him into the 3D CGI modeling/animation, digital video, consumer electronics, and lots of Smart Home technology industries.
He was a global corporate evangelist and spokesman for several leading technology corporations including SONY in the United States with a focus on business, corporate development and technology strategy in their Silicon Valley and Tokyo headquarters and research laboratories.
He has deep roots in business and technology strategy, architecture, and technology standards, where he led initiatives in CTA (Consumer Technology Association/CES Shows) and DLNA as well as the creation of new alliances such as MoCA and WINA. He has also actively mentored startups at universities and within the Venture Capital community.
After 40 years in the design related tech industry, Christian has returned to his roots in architectural and product design and couldn’t be happier.
His experience innovating technology and business models in the tech startup industry, combined with his love of great design, has led him to create Christian Jorgensen Design.
A place where fantastic homes are conceived and created with the best technology and practices in the building and design industries.

“Our homes are the basis for our communities and self identity. Communities and their members are the basis of healthy and robust societies that form the basis of a good life for all participants. When a community is healthy it invests back into itself and brings others into the fold.
Our homes are the foundation of our quality of life.
Core to my values is to see great homes and communities created for all those who are willing to make the commitment to invest into themselves and their community, ultimately to everyone’s betterment.
CJD is my life’s dream to see this opportunity realized in partnership with you.”
