Outdoor lighting in sync
with its environment
Louis Poulsen’s every solution for shaping light outdoors is rooted
in a deep knowledge of the demands of city- and landscape
illumination – and an understanding of the combination of
design and technology that results in optimal human experiences
outdoors.
The way we shape light can be traced back to Poul Henningsen
and his views on the dualities of light and design: darkness and
illumination, form and function, modern and classic. In our con-
tinued work with lighting innovation, we strive to achieve the ideal
balance among these elements.
Outdoor lighting is about more than safety. It needs to create an
inviting space within the larger surroundings and interplay with
architecture and landscape. We devote considerable attention to
every aspect of every design, working with reflection, refraction
and effects to create the best lighting experiences.
