Louis Poulsen
Founded in 1874, Danish brand Louis Poulsen has long been associated with architectural lighting that embodies both form and function. What began as a small tool and electrical supply company in Copenhagen grew into a global pioneer in lighting design, thanks in large part to its dedication to creating pieces that shape and enhance spaces rather than merely illuminating them. Louis Poulsen’s legacy is defined by its profound understanding of light’s impact on the human experience — a philosophy that remains central to their creations.
In the 1920s, the company’s trajectory shifted when it began its iconic collaboration with the visionary designer Poul Henningsen. A trailblazer in the study of light distribution, Henningsen was deeply influenced by the architectural qualities of light and its ability to shape emotions. His ambition was to create a harmonious alternative to the harsh glare of electric bulbs, emulating the soft glow of candlelight. This passion led to the creation of the legendary PH lamp series, designed with concentric, tiered shades that diffuse light evenly to eliminate harsh shadows. The PH lamp series became a cornerstone of modern Danish design and remains in production to this day, alongside Henningsen’s other timeless products such as the “Artichoke” and contemporary designs informed by his principles.
Louis Poulsen’s philosophy is grounded in the belief that light shapes life. This ethos drives every aspect of the brand’s design process, from conceptualization to craftsmanship. The company partners with renowned designers and architects who share its vision of creating “living” light — fixtures that blend effortlessly into their environments while enriching the way people perceive and interact with space. Each creation is a marriage of form, materiality and light distribution, carefully engineered to evoke warmth and comfort.
Throughout its history, Louis Poulsen has remained at the forefront of modern lighting innovation while honoring its heritage of understated elegance. In addition to Henningsen’s designs, the company’s portfolio includes celebrated works by contemporary creators such as Arne Jacobsen and Verner Panton. Louis Poulsen’s iconic pieces, such as the AJ series and Panthella lamps, reflect the enduring influence of Henningsen’s principles while introducing fresh interpretations of sculptural lighting.
The brand’s commitment to timeless design extends beyond aesthetics to encompass sustainability and craftsmanship. Louis Poulsen sources high-quality materials and employs careful production methods to ensure that each piece is both beautiful and built to last.
Today, Louis Poulsen continues to redefine architectural lighting with collections that honor tradition while embracing contemporary sensibilities.
