Louis Poulsen - Circle

LP Circle

Complete design

Every detail of the Circle fixture series has been

designed with care. From inside to out. A total

design, focusing on both technical implementation

and appearance. The product has been designed

with projects in mind, and the extensive range of

models can cater for any ceiling lighting application

– whether discrete or bold – in an optimal and

sustainable way, in terms of design, performance,

durability and energy consumption.

Key features

• high energy efficiency • diffuse comfortable uniform light

distribution • acrylic diffuser eliminates LED ’hot spotting’ •

two sizes provide great flexibility • colours and installation

options give creative freedom • minimalistic design • great

architectural versatility • tool-free installation • ideal for

repetitive installations • offers great flexibility where

uniform lighting is desired • belongs to a family of fixtures.

In his own words

The basic idea for LP Circle were born out of the experience with the

Ørestad School OreLED fixture. Mikkel Beedholm of KHR arkitekter explains

the design idea:

“The aim was for the fixture to not simply slice through the ceiling like a

tin can – we wanted the collar to give the fixture character and interplay

with the building’s architecture, adding an extra dimension to the interior

through randomised reflection of the light.

The choice of colours has also been unusual for a ceiling fixture. The

coloured rings improves the effect of reducing glare and highlighting the

shape of the luminaire. They also add colour to what are often colourless

rooms, in both their lit and unlit state.”

Product series

LP Circle has been developed to meet all the challenges which can arise when plan-

ning lighting. One could almost think of it as a lighting tool, however this does not tell

the complete story.

LP Circle is a ceiling lighting system which goes further than simply fulfilling practical

needs. LP Circle is permeated by the Louis Poulsen attitude to light, which focuses on

optimising human well-being in indoor environments.

High Output (HO) / High Efficiency (HE)

LP Circle Ø450 features high output/high efficiency, which makes it possible to achieve

an efficiency of up to 108lm/W. In addition, a prismatic version is available with a UGR

<19. Contact LP for additional information.

Considered and designed, to the finest detail

Easy and convenient mounting.

A newly developed mounting bracket allows

the fixture to be installed without the use of

tools. The ergonomically correct shape makes

it simple and easy to install.

Ceiling interface.

A polycarbonate ring with a dust-repellent

shape ensures a precise and elegant ceiling in-

terface.

Diffuser

The diffuser has an opal finish to prevent LED

’hot spotting’ and direct glare, while still per-

mitting high-efficiency light distribution with-

out significant energy loss. The depth of the

diffuser to the bottom section of the trim ring

is identical on all versions, paving the way for

a uniform design idiom and lighting design on

the ceiling. The diffuser bends 3 mm towards

the trim ring, which creates an optical effect of

two separate elements.

Elegant trim ring

The voluminous trim ring is made of alumini-

um which has been bent perpendicular to the

ceiling, and angles outwards at 5° from the

diffuser to the bottom edge. This results is an

attractive graduation of the light on the shade

interior.

Colours

Colours create a different atmosphere. Co-

lours create magic. Reflection in window

panes, the break with the white ceiling

surface, help create extra dimension

around the interior.

LP Circle is available in the standard

colours red, white, black and light blue.

The good, continuous colour rendering of LEDs has given colours of interior spaces and

materials a new life.

Louis Poulsen supplies LED light sources with two standard colour temperatures –

3000K and 4000K. The smooth transitions in the spectral curves between blue, green,

yellow and red ensure that middle spectrum colours also stand out clearly, making

LEDs not only highly energy efficient but also the right choice when you want to ex-

perience the world in true colours.
