Story
From a park exhibition to a product
The idea came during an exhibition at the Brænderigården centre in Viborg, Denmark, where a bollard was wanted to light the park area. It was developed together with the Municipality of Viborg, Viborg Energiforyning, Viborg Museum of Art, a team of landscape architects and Louis Poulsen.
A standard product
A prototype bollard served the Viborg exhibition, and the feedback was positive enough for Louis Poulsen to develop a standard product. It was optimised for material quality, light distribution and efficiency, and presented at the Light + Building trade fair in Frankfurt, Germany.
