Sophisticated and daring, Slaatto wanted to create a pendant that was ‘a three-dimensional Sudoku .. an extremely mathematical assignment’. Carefully positioned cells emit different disparities of the light source, from a diffused soft glow at the top down to direct light from the bottom; bringing a glowing focal point and a soft, dynamic illumination to contemporary spaces.
Whether used individually or in a dynamic cluster, the beautiful spherical form is simultaneously both calming and dazzling; creating a sense of magic that replicates looking up at a starry night sky. Also available is the Louis Poulsen Patera Pendant - Oval.
Danish designer Øivind Slaatto is recognised for his simple and poetic lighting solutions. Nature is Øivind's most important source of inspiration. He also seeks to transfer characteristics such as rationality, logic and harmony to his designs.
He has designed everything from speakers and cars to furniture and light fixtures. Developing lighting solutions is a specialty area and a great passion for Øivind, who has a natural affinity for light and therefore seeks to optimise the experience of light and ambience.
