Design to shape light
Shaping Light
Louis Poulsen see light as our material. A material that can be shaped to balance between light and dark, form and function, modern and classic. And in that balance, they create exceptional lighting that transforms spaces for people to thrive. That is why, they design to shape light.
They has always sought, not only to design lamps, but also to shape light and create an atmosphere that makes people feel good, both indoors and outdoors. The shape of light creates space and their products should live harmoniously within the space they define - indirect, soft and inviting.
Poul Henningsen System PH
The System PH
Louis Poulsen's philosophy of light can be traced back to 1926 when the original master of light, Poul Henningsen, first developed the System PH, a series of mathematic principles designed to provide exceptional light. The first lamps based on the system were the very popular three-shade lamps, which have since been followed by several other PH lamps based on the same principles.
