Munkegaard

®

Designer: Arne Jacobsen

Munkegaard is one of Arne Jacobsen’s design icons, and was the first

recessed fixture which illuminated the ceiling, thereby evening out

contrasts. The light forms a ring around the fixture, thus including the

surrounding ceiling surface in the room’s dimensions. Munkegaard has

a discreet presence, very much in line with Jacobsen’s architectural

approach.
