Turbo Pendant Lamp Ø62

The Turbo pendant lamp was designed by Louis Weisdorf in 1965, but production did not begin until two years later. The light is an example of design at its best: simple in form but complex in structure, it combines a sense of airiness and power in an appealing sculptural whole. In designing it, Weisdorf was inspired by the lightness of Japanese rice paper, which he transformed into a more durable version. The outer curve of the lamp is formed by twelve identical aluminium lamellas that are spirally twisted and connected to hold the shape of a ball.
