Louis Poulsen Vl 38 Terra Floor lamp black brass

The Keglen lamp was created by BIG Ideas in collaboration with Louis Poulsen in 2017. The goal was to create a simple, yet unique lamp, focused on geometry and the essence of light. The collaboration between Louis Poulsen and BIG Ideas began with the creation of a suspension for the Tirpitz Museum in Blåvand, a building that BIG Ideas designed for the Varde Museums. The Tirpitz Museum opened its doors in 2017 and the bold galvanized finish of the suspension epitomizes the museum's refined and robust architecture as it blends into the dune landscape of West Jutland. The artistic and technical collaboration between Louis Poulsen and BIG Ideas continued and has now led to the further development of the Keglen family, which with its linear geometry, is suitable for any type of interior. In designing Keglen, the aim was to create a systematic design language that would lead to a wider range of lighting typologies. In other words, Bjarke Ingels, Jakob Lange and the BIG Ideas project team wanted to create a series of lamps of different sizes with the same qualities and design details, but each with its own personality. “The geometric and metallic screens have a soft, organic glass insert that resembles a drop of water. In the table and floor versions, the glass insert meets the stem of the lamp, flowing organically around it like a liquid showing surface tension,” underline Jakob Lange and Bjarke Ingels. The Keglen Terra is based on the same family relationship as the Keglen Ø400 suspension. The design is based on the same screen where the stem transforms into the lower diffuser to bend inwards and create an elegant organic geometry as with the Keglen Tavolo lamps. The stem and base were designed to be as graphic and simple as the cone-shaped screen.

Lighting system

The distinctive truncated cone shade of the floor lamp has a built-in curved diffuser. This ensures an elegant, glare-free downward light. The stem transforms into a diffuser screen that folds inwards and creates an elegant organic geometry. A discreet and uniform opening at the top of the screen emits a delicate light and adds the perfect atmosphere.
