About the AJ Floor Lamp

 Arne Jacobsen designed this fixture, among many other features, for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, in 1957. The floor lamp yields a pleasant downward directed light with its white painted inner shade. Furthermore, the shade can be tilted to adjust light distribution.

 

The AJ lamp family is considered to be the design Jacobsen is most famous for worldwide. Apart from the AJ Floor, the AJ family consisted of a table lamp too, a smaller table lamp, a wall lamp as well as a table mounted lamp that were all to be found around the SAS Royal Hotel after its inauguration in 1960.

 

The clean distinguished shape of the AJ lamp with its immaculate light could be seen all around the hotel in copper and stainless steel. Together with the AJ Royal, the AJ lamp family was part of the overall design concept, which Jacobsen had created for the hotel. He practically designed everything himself. The parallels between the straight lines and the combination of straight and curved angles in the AJ lamp design are also visible in the geometric contours of his buildings.

 

  • The fixture emits downward directed light. The angle of the screen can be adjusted approximately 90 degrees up and down to optimize light distribution. The shade is painted white on the inside to ensure a soft comfortable light.

Heritage meets modern

Arne Jacobsen, a pioneer of Danish design, created the AJ Floor Lamp with pure functionality at its core.
Designed to cast a soft, downward light, it enhances interiors with its refined and timeless form. Its adjustable shade is a testament to Jacobsen’s meticulous balance between form and function—crafted to stand the test of time.

Danish design legacy


Originally designed in 1960 for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, the AJ Floor Lamp continues to embody Louis Poulsen’s philosophy of shaping spaces with light. A staple in modern interiors, its sculptural form remains as relevant today as ever.
