Business Pleasure Hideaways Decorative lighting

Create a welcoming atmosphere with decorative lighting For every mood we want to create, for every moment we want to make the most of, there is an ideal balance of darkness and light, of focused and ambient lighting, and of the light’s temperature and intensity. In settings in particular, where the ultimate goal is to bring memorable experiences to diverse groups of people with very different reasons for being in a given space, thoughtful illumination is essential. A lounge or reception area can be intimate and inviting when subtly and warmly lit; to maintain that ambience, it’s essential not...

Design to Shape Light   At Louis Poulsen, the way we shape light can be traced back to Poul Henningsen and his views on the dualities of light and design: darkness and illumination, form and function, modern and classic. In our continued work with lighting innovation, we strive to achieve the ideal balance among these elements – and to create the best possible ambience to help people and spaces thrive

Innovation through illumination Today, innovative, human-centred workplace design is essential to the success of the people that drive an organisation forward – and, ultimately, the success of the organisation as a whole. With the work-life divide becoming increasingly blurred and our workplaces serving as far more than just places to clock in and out, we need holistically designed environments that meet the entire range of human needs. Comfort. Security. Connection. Inspiration. Solitude. Fulfilment. Productivity. Health and wellness. This means that every space and touchpoint in an office must...

The art of creating memorable experiences Lighting brings value to the function of architecture. And, sometimes, that function is to simply give us a chance to unwind and experience pleasure. As we seek creative ways to make the most of our spare time, we might find ourselves in a castle-turnedcelebration-venue, a manufacturing-zone-turned-hip-urban-neighbourhood or new neighbourhood restaurant. A new modern art museum of a soaring lobby conceived for nothing more than pleasantly passing a free moment. Whatever the scenario, lighting gives architects and designers the freedom to imagine new ways...

Illuminate the home away from home Whether a boutique getaway off the beaten path or a prominent, go-to destination, every hotel has a personality. The best destinations – like the best people – are those that make us feel welcome, important, and cared for. They are the ones that offer us a unified, unique experience at every turn and in every space, from the lobby to the bedside table. They connect with us without overwhelming, anticipate our wishes (sometimes better than we can ourselves), and understand when we need guidance and connection and when we prefer to be left alone to recharge. A...
