Description

Designed by Arne Jacobsen and published by Louis Poulsen in 1960 for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen (Radisson Blu), the AJ luminaires were originally part of the complete design concept created for the Hotel. Arne Jacobsen not only drew up the plans for the hotel, but also imagined every detail of its interior design. Many of the products designed for this occasion are now design icons, such as the Egg and Swan armchairs. The applique AJ is characterised by the distinctive asymmetrical shape of its adjustable shade. It consists of a round base, a tubular base and a truncated conical diffuser. The inside of the shade is painted white to make the light more comfortable. The adjustable diffuser and interior of the applique AJ Wall is painted white, to make the light softer and more comfortable. This wall light combines pure, timeless design with excellent lighting qualities. Now seen as an icon of Scandinavian design, it is synonymous with elegance and lightness. The applique AJ emits an asymmetrical, direct and powerful light, directed downwards. The AJ lamps have also achieved worldwide renown. The AJ luminaires by Louis Poulsen remain over time modern classics in the field of design luminaires

Arne JACOBSEN

Born in Copenhagen in 1902, Arne Jacobsen trained as a mason at the Technical College in Copenhagen, before studying architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, where he graduated in 1927. He initially worked for Paul Holsoe, an architect, before founding his own practice in 1930. One of his significant creations was the Bellavista apartment block in Klampenborg (1933-1934), which earned him the nickname "Danish Le Corbusier." From 1934 onwards, Jacobsen worked closely with Fritz Hansen, a company he was particularly proud of. His furniture can be found in museums and hotels worldwide. Jacobsen was a key figure in the Danish functionalist movement, advocating for rational, functional architecture. He also laid the groundwork for Scandinavian organic modernism. The 1950s were among Jacobsen's most productive years. In 1952, he designed the Ant Chair for a major pharmaceutical company, which remains one of Denmark's best-selling furniture pieces. One of its variations, the Series 7 chair or 3107, was also a commercial success. In 1958, one of his most significant projects began: the design and fitting-out of the SAS Royal in Copenhagen. This project produced the iconic Egg and Swan armchairs, along with the AJ lamps, all characterized by their elegant, timeless design. Arne Jacobsen's legacy is still very much present in Denmark, where many buildings, houses, theatres, schools, and hotels bear his signature. Internationally, his greatest achievement was the design of St Catherine's College, Oxford, which gave rise to the famous Oxford chair. Fritz Hansen continues to produce Jacobsen's pieces, which have become design classics. His influence on Scandinavian design is still evident today.

LOUIS POULSEN

Danish brand Louis Poulsen was founded in 1874, originating from traditional Scandinavian design where form follows function. Louis Poulsen became the owner of the company in 1906 after the death of his uncle, Ludvig R. Poulsen. Louis Poulsen’s approach to architectural development began when he collaborated with one of the world’s leading lighting designers, Poul Henningsen. In 1924, the designer began collaborating with Louis Poulsen lighting; their objective was to take part in the "International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts". In 1925 the collaboration proved successful and the Poul Henningsen lamps won the gold medal. Following this victory, the two men marketed their products in France, England and Denmark.
