“Once you have experienced good lighting, life is filled with new values.” - Poul Henningse

Design to Shape Light Louis Poulsen is a Danish lighting manufacturer founded in 1874 and born out of the Scandinavian design tradition where form follows function. The function and design of our products are tailored to reflect and support the rhythm of natural light. Since our first collaboration with Poul Henningsen in 1924, his views on the dualities of design and light have influenced our light philosophy. Every detail in the design has a purpose. Every design starts and ends with light. We believe in passionate craftsmanship that produces quality lighting and appealing design products....

Olafur Eliasson X Louis Poulsen The result speaks for itself. The magnificent pendant, which is Olafur Eliasson’s first collaboration with Louis Poulsen, changes depending on the angle from which it is viewed. This is due to the lamp’s complex geometrical construction, which brings the light to life in a variety of ways - continuously generating new impressions for the person experiencing the lamp. Olafur Eliasson explains that it is precisely the effect that light has on us that was the most important component in his design of the pendant and its light: “Light shapes everything; it determines...

“I wanted to create a product that doesn’t produce any waste and that, like many of Louis Poulsens’s products, is something people will keep forever.” Olafur Eliasson

The light emitted by the OE Quasi Light distinguishes itself by the fact that the built-in LED light in the outer aluminium frame shines onto the inner white frame, which then, in turn, reflects the light softly and spherically. Eliasson’s fascination with the complexity and beauty of nature, of human beings and of life itself shines through in the pendant. The pendant is composed of two contrasting yet interlinked geometric shapes. The outer layer is a rigid aluminium frame in the shape of an icosahedron with 20 triangular faces. Seemingly floating within the frame, is the inner form, a white...

22 It is more than 60 years ago that one of the world’s most well-known and popular lamps first saw the light of day. In 1958, the designer Poul Henningsen completed work on the PH 5 pendant, which in many ways marked the pinnacle of his long career. Since then, PH 5 has been an icon of Danish design, and a much-loved lamp that for generations has illuminated countless dining tables around the world. Poul Henningsen, otherwise known as PH, had a mission: He wanted to create an electric lamp with pleasant, glare-free light. Taking this as his starting point, he developed a lighting philosophy...

24 Christian Flindt With all the complex technology that lives inside modern light sources, you don’t necessarly think of a lighting designer as someone with a penchant for wood-carving. Yet this is precisely the approach that led Christian Flindt to develop a unique lighting concept of striking beauty and quiet power. Here, Flindt muses about the healthy obsession that sparked his latest lighting design idea, reflects on twelve years of working with Louis Poulsen, and imagines the myriad spaces that will become home to the Flindt Wall.

27 lined up in the same size on a long wall as far as the eye can see,” says Flindt. “I see it in offices, but it could also be at the international space station to create a home-like ambience. I think it has a very calm and harmonious feel to it that will add to both classic and modern environments.” Flindt adds, “Some say that the look of the Flindt Wall reminds them of the moon, but I actually thought more of a sunset when I created the design. When the sun is going down but is still too bright to look at, if you hold your hand out to cover it, you are suddenly able to see the gradience and...
