Louis Poulsen has been at the cutting edge of lighting design for 150 years. Founding the company in Copenhagen in 1874, Poulsen collaborated with designers, architects and artists from the beginning — famously among them, Poul Henningsen, Arne Jacobsen and Verner Panton — to realize his luminary visions. In more recent years, the brand has worked alongside Alfred Homann, Oki Sato, and Olafur Eliasson in its continual striving to make lamps that maximize light and minimize glare, while boldly pushing the boundaries of form.
Louis’ lifelong obsession with geometry is reflected throughout a portfolio of iconic lamps, some of which were designed 100 years ago and are still sold and developed into new forms today: the ‘PH’ lamp, whose revolutionary three-shade system won gold at exhibition in Paris in 1925, and the coveted ‘PH Artichoke’ lamp, rarer examples of which exist in a number of public and private collections. Louis Poulsen designs can be viewed at the two-story showroom in Copenhagen.
