Designed by Barcelona-based Urbidermis, Louis the linear catenary brings a fresh approach to urban lighting. Inspired by the rationalist principles of Louis Kahn, Louis seamlessly integrates into diverse cityscapes with a suspended linear form. A blend of technical performance and refined aesthetics, Louis provides a solution for designers seeking both advanced utility and modern aesthetics.

With its sleek linear profile, Louis excels in catenary applications, gracefully floating above plazas, pedestrian corridors, and lively public spaces. Its adaptable installation allows designers to create dynamic lighting compositions, defining pathways, establishing purposeful spatial boundaries, while enhancing visibility without physical obstructions. Whether illuminating streetscapes, green spaces, or social hubs, Louis provides inviting, well-balanced illumination that unites urban environments.

Louis’ softly arched aluminum housing conceals catenary attachment points, creating a refined, minimalist aesthetic that blends seamlessly with urban landscapes of all kinds. High-quality anodized aluminum construction ensures durability against the elements, while a tempered optical glass diffuser delivers controlled, full-cutoff illumination. Available in two sizes—26” and 48”—and a range of finishes, Louis offers designers the flexibility to tailor lighting solutions that align with their project’s vision.
