UFO

by Verner Panton, 1975

As an extravagant luminous body the UFO-light floats in the air. Ring- shaped plastic tubes, hung in metal chains, form the three-dimensional body of the spaceships. Five different lamps of this kind created Verner Panton in 1975. The Ufo light with the type name VP0498-00-B-D07 is sighted in the home space sky since 2009 again. With this variation the plastic tubes cover the bulb, placed in the centre and either reflect the light.

Already in the 1950s began, between the US and the Soviet Union, the race into space. The supposed, first moon landing on 21 July 1969 in the context of the American Apollo program, formed a climax. Architects and designers, influenced by the happenings, also dealed with space. So did designer Verner Panton, who conceived the Ufo lamp among his other designs.

Understandably, the Ufo lamp offers no basic lighting but a dreamy and accentuated mood light that illuminates the direct surroundings. Individually suspended in one corner or several lights in the lounge area – the pendant lamp Ufo is extremely sculptural and extraordinary. Ufo – the world is not enough!
