Danish brand Louis Poulsen was founded in 1874, originating from traditional Scandinavian design where form follows function. Louis Poulsen became the owner of the company in 1906 after the death of his uncle, Ludvig R. Poulsen. Louis Poulsen’s approach to architectural development began when he collaborated with one of the world’s leading lighting designers, Poul Henningsen. In 1924, the designer began collaborating with Louis Poulsen lighting; their objective was to take part in the “International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts”. In 1925 the collaboration proved successful and the Poul Henningsen lamps won the gold medal. Following this victory, the two men marketed their products in France, England and Denmark. Louis Poulsen has collaborated with visionary architects and designers for over seventy years to produce innovative lighting solutions for structures and environments. Louis Poulsen lighting is innovative both in terms of aesthetics and lighting performance.
