Semi Pendant Light Ø30 Matt White GUBI - Living room - Designer - Metal - Single-bulb; The Semi pendant in Ø30 Matte White is a distinctive lamp that consists of two quarter-circles with their backs against each other. The characteristically arched and enamelled metal shade creates a diffuse light that is ideal for use over your dining table or kitchen table, where you need extra work light. The unique and timeless appearance of the Semi pendant – not to mention its range of colours and sizes – makes it versatile and well-suited for private and public spaces alike. Semi was designed in 1968 as a product of the creative partnership between Claus Bonderup and Torsten Thorup. It was manufactured in response to the soft and organic shapes of the so-called Cosy Era that dominated the Danish design landscape at the time. Bonderup and Thorup both wanted to manufacture a lamp that offered clean, sharp lines and a geometric shape. Their design was entered into a competition at the Royal Danish Academy of Architecture, where it won first prize. The pendant became hugely successful in the 1980s, becoming the best-selling Danish design at one point. It even achieved international recognition that elevated its status to iconic. color: White material: Metal
