The PH 3-shade system was initially designed as a pendant lamp solution but quickly evolved into other types of lighting fixtures for tables, floors, walls, and a wide variety of chandeliers. As a result of the various sizes, materials, finishes, and light sources, over a thousand variants have been developed over the years.\r\n\u003ch3\u003eReflective Multi-Shade System\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\nA classic among the variants is the PH 2\/1 pendant lamp. It is based on the principle of a reflective multi-shade system with glare-free lighting. The shape of the shades is based on a logarithmic spiral, with the light source positioned at its focal point. This is how the 2\/1 produces soft lighting. The lampshade is made of white opal glass, and the suspension is available in either drawn aluminum with a high-gloss chrome finish or black metallized aluminum. The fabric cord is black.\r\nThe PH lamps were designed as a rational lighting system in which the size of the shade, its material, and its finish could be combined according to the intended application. All upper shades have a corresponding set of middle and lower shades, so that the proportions between the shades roughly correspond to a 3:2:1 ratio. Each shade reduces the amount of light.\r\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct family by Poul Henningsen\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\nOne of the fundamental models from the early days was the PH 5\/ 5. The first number indicates the approximate diameter of the shade; the number after the slash indicates that the middle and lower shades were “designed” for this upper shade. This means that the 5\/5 has a top shade with a diameter of 50, a middle shade of 31, and a bottom shade of 15.5 centimeters. This combination worked well when the lamp was intended to be hung high up. However, if it was to hang lower, a combination of a large upper shade and smaller middle and lower shades made sense. This is how the PH 2\/ 1. Came to be\r\n\u003ch3\u003eArchitecture and Lighting: Poul Henningsen\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\nPoul Henningsen was born in Copenhagen, the son of the famous Danish actress Agnes Henningsen. He did not earn a degree in architecture, but studied at the Frederiksberg Technical School from 1911 to 1914 and then at the Technical College in Copenhagen from 1914 to 1917. He also began to apply traditional functionalist architecture. However, his professional interest soon focused primarily on lighting design—and that is what he is famous for.\r\n\u003ch3\u003eExquisitely Designed Lighting— Louis Poulsen \u003c\/h3\u003e\r\nThe Danish lighting manufacturer Louis Poulsen , founded in 1874, creates products that embody the duality of design and light.
