Danish lights - harmonious combination of functionality, simplicity and cosiness
In the world of interior design, Denmark is considered part of the popular Scandinavian style. The origins of this globally recognised style lie in the 1950s in the post-war period, when modern and simple designs at affordable prices were in demand. Since the 1960s, "Danish Design" has continued to inspire with its minimalism, functionality and naturalness.
In Denmark, where winter days are short and light is precious, special attention is paid to the importance of good lighting. Inspired by the Scandinavian lifestyle of "hygge", Danish luminaires are intelligently designed to fulfil the following basic needs: Well-being, cosiness and enjoyment. The luminaires are characterised by warm light, which is intended to replace the lack of sunlight. At the same time, this creates an inviting atmosphere and enhances mood and productivity.
The timeless designs are minimalist due to their high level of functionality. Neutral colours and natural materials such as light wood or lacquered metal are typical features of Danish luminaires. They are therefore suitable for a variety of interior styles.

What distinguishes Danish luminaires from the Scandinavian style?
As Danish lights have their origins in Scandinavia, they do not differ significantly from the Scandinavian style. The similar cultures of the Nordic countries characterise the designs, which are mainly characterised by functionality, aesthetics and simplicity. Characteristics of Nordic nature, which serves as a popular model, are reflected in the look of the luminaires, including natural materials such as wood. These characteristics apply equally to Danish luminaires. Another common feature is the strong focus on user-friendliness and the feel-good factor in the sense of the "hygge" lifestyle.
Although many Danish luminaires conform to the Scandinavian style, it is important to note that not all luminaires from Denmark follow this style exclusively. The creativity of the designers is individual and goes beyond the country of origin. In addition, international working relationships lead to a variety of styles and influences.
