Master of light
It all started in the 1920s, when electricity was still in its infancy in Copenhagen, Poul Henningsen met the then CEO of Louis Poulsen, Sophus Kaastrup-Olsen. The two innovative minds instantly connected, forming what would turn into a life-long collaboration and the distinctive lighting philosophy solidifying Poul Henningsen’s legacy as the Original Master of Light, putting him at the very centre of Danish design.
“Here I met a man who was just as crazy as me, and a lot of good came out of it.”
Poul Henningsen
