Multidimensional lighting Ripls® is a wall-mounted and ceiling lamp created for spaces where people are in motion. Our ambition has been to develop a lamp that creates a multidimensional effect when you move past it. At first glance, it is the epitome of discretion with its minimalist design. However, as you walk past the lamp, the light changes character. In this way, the fixture supports the function of the room.

At Louis Poulsen we shape light. We strive to create an atmosphere where you feel comfortable. We shape our products because of the illumination each shape creates. Every single surface and curve exists to create precisely the right atmosphere in the room. Form follows function. With Ripls, the desire was to create a lamp which was discreet - yet also an experience. From a distance, the opal-shaped lamp resembles an illuminating frisbee.

Ripls consists of a concave clear front with ripples like rings in water. The ripples break up the light, causing the lamp to change appearance depending on your angle of view. The concave shape intensifies the light towards the center, while it becomes less intense towards the edges. Deep within the lamp is a diffuser, which creates a sense of depth at the front. The sleek look makes Ripls appear like a floating disk, while the perforated housing cause the indirect light to form a halo around the lamp.
