About the Collection Louis Poulsen Enigma


The Enigma suspensions were designed by the Japanese designer Shoichi Uchiyama in 2003, and are delicate lighting objects with a futuristic appeal and composed of single elements that seem to float in the room as if by magic.

The design idea of Uchiyama was the concept of a traditional chandelier deconstructed into thin levels of concentrically arranged circles, held by very thin cables, and seemingly light and transparent. The name "Enigma" stands for "mystery" and the suspensions appear as such, because the illuminated shades seem to float in a mysterious way at a distance. This idea was in accordance with the design philosophy by Louis Poulsen and was a new interpretation of the three-shade system, because Japanese appeal is combined with Scandinavian sobriety. 2018, a black version complemented the version of brushed aluminium and matt white acrylic shades.

The round acrylic shades of the Enigma suspensions are suspended discreetly on seemingly invisible cables so that it seems that they rise up like smoke rings or cloud layers. In addition, there is a suspended aluminium cone, containing the lamp and perfectly complementing the lights' overall shape.

The light shines glare-free and softly downwards and is reflected by the shades located below and distributed in the room. To achieve an ideal light distribution, the shades are matt on the top and shiny on the underside.

Because of their unique shape, they are also an eyecatcher when turned off. In modern kitchens and dining rooms, they illuminate the table surfaces, provide a calm appearance for a pleasant atmosphere and attracts the attention.

The cable and plug of the "aluminium brushed" version is transparent, while it is black for the black version.
