About

Vilhelm Lauritzen (1894–1984) is one of the most significant architects in the history of Denmark; he was the trail-blazing figurehead of Danish functionalism. A number of his buildings – Nørrebro Theatre (1931–1932), Daells Varehus department store (1928–1935), Radiohuset (1936-1941) and the first airport built in Kastrup (1937–1939), represented the concentrated essence of contemporary life. Other significant buildings to stem from Lauritzen’s drawing board include Folkets Hus (1953–1956) better known today as the Vega concert venue, the Shellhuset (1950–1951) building and the Danish embassy in Washington (1958–1960). In particular the Radiohuset building and the earliest version of Kastrup Airport – both listed today, are considered peerless monuments to modernism in the European genre of construction. The fixture emits downward directed light. The angle of the shade can be adjusted to optimize light distribution. The shade is painted white on the inside to ensure a soft comfortable light. Material: Die cast aluminum, Spun aluminum, Brushed Brass.; Light Source: 1 x 10W LED.; Bulb Type: Integral LED.; Bulb Included: Integral LED.; Integral LED Color Temp: 2700K.; Voltage: 120V.

About The Maker

Louis Poulsen

In 1924, Poul Henningsen created his influential Paris lamp for Louis Poulsen, and the origin of how we still design to shape light can directly be traced back to his views on the dualities of design and light. Founded in 1874, Louis Poulsen is a Danish lighting manufacturer born out of the Scandinavian design tradition where form follows function. The function and design of our products are tailored to reflect and support the rhythm of natural light. Every detail in the design has a purpose. Every design starts and ends with light. We believe in passionate craftsmanship that produces quality lighting and design products that are pleasing to the eye and to the light.
