Bysted Garden LED Long Bollard
Bysted Garden LED Long Bollard is a downscaled version of Danish architect Peter Bysted's original 1975 design. The bollard is characterized by its four rings and the intriguing soft/diffused/ambient symmetric light pattern it creates on the ground.
This Louis Poulsen garden light has been perfected for easy on-the-spot installation to improve the quality of light in outdoor spaces. Made with durable cast aluminum, it will not patinate over time. Available in two different heights, Bysted Garden allows for a wide range of installations from lighting walkways to illuminating planter boxes on a balcony.

In 1975, Peter Bysted won second prize in a lighting contest with ‘Bysted’, a bollard made from corten steel, suggesting his interest in lighting design years before graduating as an architect and industrial designer from The Aarhus School of Architecture in 1978. While a student he was also very interested in graphic design––the combination of these two fields that characterizes his lighting designs.
