happy colour happy birthday
In 2008, PH5 celebrates its 50th anniversary. To mark this occasion, we introduce a special version of the classic fixture. We have named it PH 50. For five decades, PH5 has proven its unique ability to blend into all types of interiors. We now introduce the 2008 version, PH 50, in five new colours that present new decorative options – without changing Poul Henningsen’s design or the excellent ideas underlying the light processing.

Glare-free light in dazzling design The fact that a design lasts for 50 years speaks for itself. Let us just repeat that PH5 is the embodiment of all the experience Poul Henningsen reaped during 30 years’ research in lighting. In PH5, Poul Henningsen combined the three-shade and the four-shade fixtures to create a fixture emanating both downlight and diffused room illumination. Naturally, the light source is shaded. Actually, PH5 is one of the supreme examples of the completely glare-free fixture.
A breath of fresh air PH5 was first introduced at the exhibition “Glass, light and colours” at the Danish Museum of Art & Design in Copenhagen in 1958. At the time, the fixture was introduced as a classic novelty. However, no one could foresee that PH5 would one day come to be the very embodiment of a PH fixture. As time has gone by, PH5 has become one of the best selling PH fixtures in the world.
In recent years, Louis Poulsen has manufactured it in white and graphite as standard colours. Appeals to resurrect the coloured versions have abounded. The new PH 50 is at once classic and contemporary, able to add refreshing vitality to your home.
