Story
From a design competition
Moonsetter was the winning design in the Next Danish Design Classic competition, broadcast on national Danish television in 2020. The judges recognised its simple design, clean lines and timeless feel. The design is based on basic geometric shapes, with the circle, square and cylinder merged in one artistic configuration.
Developed with Louis Poulsen
After making the first prototype for the competition, Anne Boysen entered into a partnership with Louis Poulsen to continue the design iterations. The lamp was introduced in Denmark in 2021 in numbered editions of 100 pieces, each engraved with the edition number and a unique sequential number from 1 to 100.
