This year, in celebration of Mr. Henningsen’s feat, Louis Poulsen launches a series of special editions: PH Artichoke in brass, and the PH 5 and PH 5 Mini in copper.
“The year 1958 was an incredible one for architecture in design around the world – and certainly in Denmark,” says Mr. Rasmus Markholt, product and design director at Louis Poulsen. “There was something in the water: Arne Jacobsen, for instance, created an array of design icons, which we produce to this day, for his SAS Royal Hotel masterpiece in Copenhagen. And Poul Henningsen lit up the world with three completely unprecedented pendant concepts. His thinking about the way design shapes light has informed generations of lighting designers, not to mention the Louis Poulsen story. So we are honoured to have this opportunity to showcase how relevant his captivating, organic forms continue to be in the modern world.”
Through the decades, the relevance of Mr. Henningsen’s lighting designs has not dimmed. In fact, with a current trend on creating warm interiors through illumination, the new metallic editions infuse precisely the right ambience and visual appeal, while making a statement of timeless elegance.
