An icon of Danish design first produced in 1968, the Semi Pendant by Claus Bonderup and Torsten Thorup was one of the most sought-after lighting fixtures throughout the 1970s and ’80s gained worldwide recognition and iconic status. Reacting against the soft organic forms, the so-called cosy era, that was dominating Denmark at the time, Bonderup and Thorup wanted to create a lamp that incorporated sharp, clean lines and a geometric shape. Their design was submitted for a competition at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture and won first prize. With its unique timeless design and range of colours and sizes, the Semi Pendant is extremely versatile and well suited to both private and public spaces.
