VL 56 Pendant | Highlight image
The well known functionalist architect, Vilhelm Lauritzen designed Folkets Hus, in Vesterbro Copenhagen. Originally designed and built for the Danish Labour Movement building which opened in 1956 and is now used as a concert hall, called Vega. The building is a gesamtkunstwerk, meaning that Lauritzen designed everything in the building, from doorknobs, staircases and power outlets, to furniture and lamps.

The VL 56 Pendant was among the lamps Vilhelm Lauritzen designed for Vega, and to this day it hangs above the wood panelled bar, adjacent to the concert hall. Both the chrome and brass variants were reintroduced in 2023, with slight adjustments and improvements.

The Light Concept: Downward directed glare free light.
The pattern around the opening creates a softer transition between light and darkness and a beautiful pattern of light both on the shade and on the surroundings.

Light Source: E27/E26 socket
