Louis Poulsen - Design luminaires that give shape to light
Panthella Series - Verner Panton
The Danish designer and architect Verner Panton created the well-known and popular design lamp already in 1971. Its glare-free light and the soft, geometric silhouette are an expression of the talent of the famous designer. Panton knew exactly how to combine atmospheric lighting and timeless design.
The Panthella is available in different formats and embodies Panton's art of developing graphic and sculptural elements with a functional scope like no other luminaire. The sculptural and expressive shape, reminiscent of a mushroom, makes the Panthella a design classic with recognition value.

PH Series - Poul Henningsen
Already in 1925/26, the famous designer Poul Henningsen had designed a three-part lamp shade that was to become famous. In 1958, the pioneer of lighting design then designed the corresponding lamp collection - the PH series, which was absolutely revolutionary at the time, around the PH Artichoke, PH 5 and PH Snowball. As with all his designs, Poul Henningsen was primarily concerned with creating luminaires with glare-free light so that they cast soft shadows and the light cone is perfectly aligned.
He has more than succeeded in this with the PH series, which today comprises a large number of models. The iconic lampshades not only provide pleasant lighting, but also have the recognition value of a true classic.

Form follows function
In 1924, Poul Henningsen designed his defining Paris lamp for Louis Poulsen. The origin of our approach to giving form to light goes directly back to his views regarding the duality of design and light. Poul Henningsen was born in Copenhagen as the son of the famous Danish actress Agnes Henningsen. He did not graduate as an architect, but studied at the Frederiksberg Technical School from 1911-1914 and then at the Technical College in Copenhagen from 1914-17. He also began to apply traditional functionalist architecture.
However, his professional interest soon focused mainly on lighting design - and that is what he is famous for. Poul Hennigsen's pioneering work regarding the relations between light structures, shadows, reflection and light rendering - compared to the need for light remains the cornerstone of light theory, which is still used at Louis Poulsen.
