Gubi Semi Pendant Pendant Light

Semi Pendant Pendant Light by Gubi

The Semi Pendant Light by Claus Bonderup and Torsten Thorup for Gubi is a versatile lighting solution that makes a statement in any setting. Whether in an office with classic simplicity or as a splash of color in a children's room or kitchen, the curved design of the Semi light is impressive. It also looks great in half-light sets of various sizes. The designers made a statement against the cozy trend in Danish design in the 1960s, creating a fixture with clear lines and geometric shapes.

Bonderup & Thorup Design - Semi Pendant Light

The Semi Pendant Light is globally recognized for its curved, enameled metal, inspired by a quarter circle. The shade of the light consists of two quarter circles, which is how it got its name "Semi." Geometric shapes like circles, triangles, and squares served as the primary source of inspiration for the designers. Originally, the half pendant light was designed in 1968 for an industrial competition by the Danish Academy of Architecture and was created by architecture students Claus Bonderup and Torsten Thorup. They won the competition with their unique light design.
