Bauhaus style pendant light
Elegant BL9 pendant lamp easily blends into the room. Due to its dimensions, it is perfect for lighting larger rooms or tables. Here, the functionalist design acts either elegantly in the background or as a direct eye-catcher in the center.
The simple design of the BL luminaires was adapted for BL9 to the needs of a pendant luminaire. Consequently, it is even more reduced but no less classic and elegant. Due to the functionality and characteristic design of designer Robert Dudley Best, it is easy to recognize the affiliation of BL9 to the well-known family of Bauhaus lamps.
When Robert Dudley Best designed the BL series lamps in the 1930s, they were revolutionarily simple and had a clear and unusually functional design language for the time. As such, they are still considered examples of classic Bauhaus design today. This was reinforced by the fact that the Briton Robert Dudley Best maintained close contacts with Dessau, Weimar and Berlin, the centers of the German Bauhaus movement at the time.
Even two-time British Prime Minister Winston Churchill had a BL1 lamp on his desk in Whitehall, and many architects and designers worked out great designs under your light.
The BL9 pendant lamp from Gubi is available in various colors and sizes.
