FREE 3ds Max Models: Louis Poulsen Lighting



Louis Poulsen Lighting is a design company which has posted over 100 free 3d models of it's lighting products on their website. These are high-quality, detailed models, and most of them even come with an IES file already attached. DWG and MAX formats are available for most products. Here's how to get the free models:
  • Click here to go to the louispoulsen.com
  • Navigate to the product page of your choice.
  • Click the 'Download' link in the COLORED menu. Clicking the white 'Download' link at the top of the page won't take you to the 3d models. (Bad website design.)
  • Find the 'ThreeDFiles' section, usually towards the bottom of the screen. They do not have 3d models for all of their products.
  • Click on the file you wish to download.
Here's a link to the free 3dsMax version of the popular PH Artichoke pendant light.

Louis Poulsen has a lot of products which are very popular with architects and interior designers, and it's also a great way to build up your digital model library. Hopefully this will be a great resource for you.

Nice find. Another great resource on the site are all the .ies files they offer. I used to be limited to Erco's .ies.
