9464 Wall Lamp by Gubi

The 9464 Wall Lamp, designed in the early 1950s by Paavo Tynell, is a great example of how the Finnish designer elevated illumination into an art form. The clean, sculptured brass shade lends an air of elegance with Tynell's distinctive traits of twin dot perforation pattern combined with notched edges, making the wall lamp appealing and admirable in all its simplicity. Equally relevant today as when first introduced, the 9464 Wall Lamp fits perfectly into contemporary interiors, adding a sculptural effect to the wall whilst simultaneously creating a relaxed yet very refined indirect lighting.

PAAVO TYNELL

Paavo Tynell (1890-1973) was an industrial designer, known as the great pioneer of Finnish lighting design and fondly dubbed as "the man who illuminated Finland". Tynell was one of the founders and chief designers of Taito Oy - the first industrial producer of lighting fixtures in Finland. With the innovation of electricity in the beginning of the 20th century, Taito Oy and Tynell expanded the thinking and manufacturing of modern lighting solutions in Europe and abroad.

TWIN DOT PERFORATION PATTERN

Perfecting the techniques of metal finishes, Tynell developed the 9464 Pendant with his exceptional ability to capture and translate a grace and exuberant lightness into his brass creations and reflects his distinguished craftsmanship.
