21/01/2020 - Sculptural and intimate, Keglen is the new series of suspension lamps born from the collaboration between the Danish company Louis Poulsen and BIG Ideas. The main feature of the lamp is the its soft, organic shaped glass that sits perfectly beneath the geometric screen, as a small water droplet shaped by physics and cohesive forces in nature. A liquid that exhibits surface tension.
The key pieces in the Keglen series are four pendants (Ø175), (Ø250), (Ø400) and (Ø650) that each provide their very own diffusion of light using a curved glass insert, which is built into and adapted to each version of the shade. This way the distinctive cone-shaped shades ensure a both attractive and glare-free downward light – just as the various versions provide the option of countless combinations in any interior, such as for example restaurants and meeting facilities. But the pendants are just as beautiful on their own where they provide a simpler and more intimate lighting for the home, for instance.
The lamps all have a discreet, uniform opening at the top that allows a little light to flow gently upwards and emphasise the structure of the cord.

The new lamp series is a further development of the ‘Tirpitz Pendant’, which was the result of the first collaboration between Louis Poulsen and BIG Ideas. The pendant was created for the Tirpitz Museum in Blåvand, Denmark, which BIG designed for the Varde Museums, in 2017.
The new Keglen family will be available in stores from February 2020.
