Louis Poulsen Pakhus pendant light Type: 16800
Louis Poulsen Pakhus pendant light type 16800. This luminaire is an example of minimalist lighting technology, with a primary focus on point-shaped light sources. The anti-glare ring prevents direct glare from the focal point of the light source, while allowing optimum light distribution both upwards and downwards.
Pakhus design
Erik Møllers Tegnestue designed the Pakhus pendant lamp in 1984 for the Royal Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Copenhagen. The Ministry is housed in an old warehouse known as Eigtved’s Warehouse, which dates back to the 18th century. The warehouse has many rooms with low ceilings, like many other buildings of this era. The designer designed a small pendant with a warm glowing light that would fit into this environment.
Condition
The lamp is approximately 30 years old and in fair condition with clear signs of previous use. This could include paint damage. The lamp has been rewired with a white cord with a length of approximately 200 cm.

About Louis Poulsen
Louis Poulsen’s goal is not just to design lights. By shaping light from a lamp, Louis Poulsen wants to create an atmosphere in which people feel good, both inside and outside. The shape of the light creates space and the products must live harmoniously in the space they define – indirect, soft and inviting. View our complete collection of Louis Poulsen lighting here.
