FUN/

1964

Many regard the Fun collection as one of Verner Panton’s greatest masterpieces in the field of lighting

design. Ever since 1964, this pendant lamp has kindled joy and a wealth of stories. The idea for Fun

came from Panton’s desire to design a lamp, that would cast a diffused light, and have an optimal

effect in a coloured interior.

In terms of materials, Panton originally worked with metal discs but was curious to create something

brand new and during a visit to Malaysia, he found what he was looking for: delicate seashells with a

vibrant, pearly texture.

When the air set them in motion, they produced the most exquisite, delicate sound. At the same time

the UN were looking for ways to generate more jobs in developing countries. Panton could help this

effort by using seashells for his Fun lamps.

Today, the Fun collection is available in a wide variety of finishes, sizes and include pendants, floor,

table and wall pieces.
