Louis Poulsen is launching a new series of lamps with a colorful difference – a series created in cooperation with the Swedish designer and graphic artist Clara von Zweigbergk.

“I don’t mind at all if – sitting in their kitchens – people look up and start thinking of hot-air balloons and carousels,” says Clara von Zweigbergk when asked to describe her new lamp series.

Named CIRQUE, the series was developed in cooperation with Louis Poulsen and inspired by a trip to Tivoli in Copenhagen. Tivoli is full of whirls and twirls – carousels, cotton candy makers and wheels of fortune. When an object spins very fast, colors merge to become horizontal bands of color. These inspirations resulted in a vibrant design uniting unconventional colors and forms in a series of truly innovative lamps. They which will add both edge and charisma to their surroundings – both in daylight and when lit.

The new lamp series is equally suited for restaurants and bars, as well as kitchens and dining rooms. A diffuse, downward light is reflected from the matte white inside of the lamp and is glare-free when hung at normal height.
