Description
To mark Poul Henningsen's 120th birthday on 9 September 2014, Louis Poulsen has released the new PH 3½-3 pendant. Faithful to the world of Poul Henningsen and his late 1920s and early 1930s designs, the lamp consists of three aluminium shades and a copper pendant. Designed more than 80 years ago, this pendant combines modernity and classicism, and is perfectly suited to a wide variety of interior designs. Elegant, rustic and functional at the same time, the PH 3½-3 pendant is a masterpiece of Danish design history when it comes to lamps. Available in several colours, it is just as beautiful on its own as it is combined with other pendants in a dining room for example.

Born in 1894 in Denmark, Poul Henningsen studied architecture at the Polytechnic from 1915 to 1917. He studied at the Technical School in Frederiksberg, Denmark, from 1911 to 1914, then at the Technical University of Copenhagen from 1914 to 1917, although he never graduated in architecture. In 1920, the designer began working as a freelance architect, but also worked as a journalist, writing numerous articles for various newspapers.A writer and designer, he was an emblematic figure in Danish cultural life during the two world wars. He went on to work for the famous Danish publisher Louis Poulsen, and quickly achieved international success with his PH lamps, first exhibited in 1925 at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes in Paris. Poul Henningsen designed timeless lamps whose aestheticism still appeals to vintage design aficionados. PH lamps are all encircled by a number of metal or glass shades that act as reflectors, providing soft, diffused light that's both functional and soft. The design of these luminaires is such that it is impossible to see the light source directly, making them totally glare-free.The technique he developed made him one of the greatest Scandinavian designers of the 20th century.

LOUIS POULSEN
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.
