Light has played a vital role from the very beginning of human life. Today where we have light everywhere - especially in the cities, lighting needs to integrate with its surroundings for humans to thrive. For millennia town and city lights had the primary role of safety and security. It prevented the wanderer from tripping on the path and would fend off a potential mugger. Today there are countless roles of light in the city and lighting systems are essential for the life of the modern human: moving between home and workplace, shopping, enjoying leisure time or simply moving around while...

Design to Shape Light   Louis Poulsen has always sought, not only to design lamps, but to shape light and create an atmosphere that makes people feel good, when at work, at home and outdoors. The shape of light creates space and our products should live harmoniously within the space they define - indirect, soft and inviting.

Miami Beach, Miami, Florida, USA.

From Albertslund to Miami Our product portfolio combines high and low lighting in an architectural design that easily goes into a harmonious dialogue with all kinds of urban projects. One example is the Albertslund post top. Its story began 50 years ago where we got engaged in the development of a post for a project in the city of Albertslund, Denmark. The Albertslund Post remains popular today and can be found in many places in- and outside Denmark – even in Miami.

The modern city needs to have something to offer for many different lifestyles. We don’t just drive to town to work and then leave in the evening but use and navigate the city in many different ways. Transparent restaurants and shops tempt us, and open-air experiences at cultural and educational centres open our minds. Obviously the city infrastructure needs to be well functioning, but it also needs to be a place where humans can rest after work without being bombarded with impressions. Safety is still an important factor when selecting and planning the right lighting - not least in the...

Every space in its right light   We use and navigate the city in many different ways: we drive, walk, bike and skate. The new mixed industrial-recreational areas such as harbour front lead to new ways of designing and combining different lighting. Both the purposes and functions of an urban space need to be considered when planning the lighting in an area. Lighting fixtures from Louis Poulsen are created with a deep knowledge of requirements, aesthetics and environmental adaptability. That’s the reason why they make a difference in every lighting project.
