TURBO COLLECTION

1965

Designed by Louis Weisdorf

Turbo Collection comprises the Turbo Pendant in two sizes.

Geometry creates sculptural elegance

Louis Weisdorf's Turbo Pendant was designed in 1965,

but first put into production in 1967 and has achieved

great success since then. It represents design at its best: it

is simple in form yet complex in structure, and combines

a sense of both strength and spaciousness in a beautiful

sculptural whole. The lightness of the Japanese rice paper

that inspired the lamp has been transformed into a more

durable and sturdier form. The outer curve of the lamp

is made of 12 spiral membranes that form a flower-like

globe to shield the light. The Turbo Pendant is a perfect

example of how Weisdorf's passion for the repetition of

elements characterizes his design.
