Artist Pendant Lamps

Artist Pendant Lamps

Artist Pendant lamps is an innovative lighting design that exemplifies the seamless fusion of minimalist aesthetics with advanced illumination technology. Created by Danish design firm Bonnelycke mdd in 2014-2015, these pendant lamps feature an extraordinarily slim profile while delivering high-output, comfortable illumination through an evenly distributed light source. The design's distinguishing characteristic lies in its streamlined form factor, achieving an appearance of continuous, uninterrupted lines through the clever concealment of all mechanical components, including screws and brackets. Available in two diameter options (250mm and 400mm) and finished in Smooth Grey, Smooth Black, or Polished Copper, these pendant lamps incorporate sophisticated LED technology with traditional metalworking techniques. The design's innovative approach to light distribution employs a specially engineered internal glass component with silkscreen treatment, enabling the transformation of horizontal light emission into vertical illumination. This technical achievement, combined with its minimal 38mm height profile, allows for optimal placement above dining tables, creating intimate atmospheres while maintaining clear sight lines. The design's excellence was recognized with a Golden A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures Design category in 2017, acknowledging its contribution to contemporary lighting design. The pendant's development involved extensive research into light transport mechanisms and manufacturing processes, resulting in a product that harmoniously balances functional requirements with aesthetic refinement.
