Panton was known for his skillful play with basic geometric forms, figures and systems - often drawing inspiration from organic silhouettes found in nature - and the new HIVE pendant is no exception.
Made from multiple concentric shades of varying size, the layered design of the pendant offers a very characteristic and sculptural quality while ensuring a 100% glare-free light. The fixture emits a generous downward light that is complimented by a soft and diffused lateral light. Like with much of Panton’s lighting designs, the unique and expressive idiom of the HIVE pendant demand attention even with the lights off.
Available in polished aluminum or a powder coated version in warm yellow. The new HIVE design is brought to life by VERPAN from Panton’s original sketches and it is the first time the design is put into production.
