To coincide with the 150th anniversary of Louis Poulsen, the Danish design brand has produced a 2024 version of its iconic AJ mini lamp and made eight available to Dezeen readers in September.
A limited run has been produced to mark this milestone in the brand’s history, with the lamps expected to become collectibles in the future. To win one, simply set up a free account on Dezeen Jobs to be automatically entered into the draw. (It takes just a few short steps).
The 2024 special edition of the AJ mini is distinguished by a matt white exterior, a brass stem and a pale pink cast inside the shade, creating a cosy downward facing glow.
Originally designed by architect Arne Jacobsen in 1957 for the SAS Royal hotel in Copenhagen, the lamp has become one of Louis Poulsen’s most classic design objects.
“When our founder, Ludvig Poulsen, started his family business in 1874, I don’t think he’d dare to dream of where we would be 150 years later,” said Søren Mygind Eskildsen, CEO of Louis Poulsen.
