Gunnar Asplund GA9 Wall Light Mouthblown Opaque Glass, Designed in 1930´s

GA15 is a classical globe luminaire, save for the fact that it is a wall luminaire. The fitting consists of a mouthblown, three layered opaque glass attached to a bent steelrod which grows out from the wall. The quality of the glass in collaboration with the centered light source creates a uniform, general and diffuse illumination, regardless of what light source is chosen. The timeless design, versatility and the diffused and symmetrical light ensures that GA15 illuminates surfaces in a comfortable way. Erik Gunnar Asplund.

GA3 is the versatile light fitting, designed and incorporated as both a ceiling- and a wall luminaire in the original project by Gunnar Asplund. The luminaire consists of a three layered opaque glass which in combination with the light source creates a soft and comfortable light. Visible metal parts in chrome. The versatility, easy maintenance and the timeless design makes GA3 into a fitting that will stand the test of time. In order not to change the unique and original light distribution created by the glass, GA1 will continue to be manufactured for omni-directional lightsources. Erik Gunnar Asplund. Erik Gunnar Asplund (22 September 1885 – 20 October 1940) was a Swedish architect, mostly known as a key representative of Nordic Classicism of the 1920s, and during the last decade of his life as a major proponent of the modernist style which made its breakthrough in Sweden at the Stockholm International Exhibition (1930). Among Asplund's most important works is the Stockholm Public Library, constructed between 1924 and 1928, which stands as the prototypical example of the Nordic Classicism and so-called Swedish Grace movement. It was particularly influential on the proposal submitted for the competition for the design of the Viipuri Library in 1927 by Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, who regarded Asplund as his mentor. Another important work is the extension of the Gothenburg Courthouse Extension building which Asplund started on 1913 and finished 1937 - it shows his transformation from neo-classical to functionalist architect, a transformation in parallel with other European modernists like Erich Mendelsohn. Asplund collaborated with architect Sigurd Lewerentz...

GA7 is a classical globe luminaire and consists of a mouthblown, three layered opaque glass. Originally designed to enlighten the corridors of the basement at the Woodland Cemetary. The frosted glass in collaboration with the centered light source creates a uniform, general and diffuse light, but with an opening in the glass to also create a direct lightdistribution. GA7 is manufactured as a fixed luminaire, but can also be hanged from cable. Details in either brass or coated. Erik Gunnar Asplund.
