Description
Poul Henningsen developed the PH 5 in 1958 as a follow-up to his celebrated three-shade system, which launched in 1926 and put Louis Poulsen on the map as a leading manufacturer of innovative lighting.
Henningsen’s goal: to make light softer and more flattering in an era when electric lighting was still new and marked by unwanted glare.
Six decades after the lighting pioneer created his celebrated PH 5 pendant, the design remains Louis Poulsen’s bestseller.
The sculptural PH 5 was the result of Henningsen’s tireless mission to create the ultimate glare-free pendant, and is a development of his three-shade system for mostly downward-directed light.
The design eliminates glare and creates an inviting, comfortable ambience.
