He never graduated as an architect, but studied at The Technical School at Frederiksberg, Denmark from 1911-14, and then at Technical College in Copenhagen from 1914-17. He started practicing traditional functionalistic architecture, but over the years his professional interests changed to focus mainly on lighting. He also expanded his field of occupation into areas of writing, becoming a journalist and an author. For a short period at the beginning of WWII, he was the head architect of the Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen. But like many other creative people, he was forced to flee Denmark during the German occupation but soon became a vital part of the Danish colony of artists living in Sweden. His lifelong collaboration with Louis Poulsen Lighting began in 1925 and lasted until his death. To this day, Louis Poulsen Lighting still benefits from his genius. Poul Henningsen was also the first editor of the company magazine "NYT". The CEO of Louis Poulsen at the time, Sophus Kaastrup-Olsen, gave the magazine to PH as a gift because he had been terminated from the Danish newspaper he worked for (his opinions were too radical). Poul Henningsen's pioneering work concerning the relations between light structures, shadows, glare, and color reproduction—compared to man's need for light remains the foundation of the lighting theories still practiced by Louis Poulsen Lighting. Louis PoulsenCreating ideal functional, comfortable and ambience-generating lighting for people has been Louis Poulsen Lighting's mission from its incorporation. Louis Poulsen Lighting's overall ambition is to create harmonious and people-friendly lighting. Customer ReviewsBeautifully designed and functionally exact.

This lamp is truly a work of Art. It is a beautiful modern classic, emits a nice diffused light. By: SN, Homeowner (New York, NY) I always had my eye on owning a PH lamp and now I finally got it in my living room next to a reading chair! The soft light is gentle to the eyes, and I'm delighted with both my purchase and the purchase experience. By: Kirsten H., Homeowner (Seattle) It's a gorgeous Danish lamp! I really like the design of this lamp because it is contemporary; it emits a nice indirect light. It fits nicely in a somewhat contemporary Herman Miller office that we just installed for a home office. Unfortunately as with many of these deign lights they are expensive. Overall we are very happy with the table lamp. By: Fredrik, (Ft.
