Louis Poulsen – focusing on the correct light
Louis Poulsen is known throughout Denmark and the world for his approach to the correct light. That was one of the main things on Poul Henningsen’s mind when he designed the first PH lamps using the three-shade principle that allowed him to achieve a light that didn’t blind.
The correct light still matters a great deal to Louis Poulsen, and thanks to developments in technology, there are more options for amazing light settings than ever. Read more about Poul Henningsen here
