A vision for modern cities
For millennia, town and city lights have enhanced our
safety, allowing us to navigate the outdoors at any time
of day or night. Today, light plays an ever-more important
and varied role in urban setting as we move between
home, work, shopping, and leisure activities – or simply
explore and enjoy our surroundings. Intelligent, aestheti-
cally pleasing lighting systems are essential to helping us
to feel our best. What’s more, they help strengthen our
connection to our natural and man-made surroundings.
Lighting in city centres can be as diverse as the areas
themselves. Numerous light sources – from post tops
and bollards to various wall- and surface-mounted
fixtures – create an inviting, unified flow through streets
and squares, and draw our attention to urban elements of
particular beauty and importance.
Louis Poulsen’s solutions for urban areas range from the
classic to the ultra-modern, allowing planners and design-
ers to speak to a city’s history while projecting its vision of
the future.
