But the VP Globe pendant lamp not only stands for the era of new beginnings and reorientation. The VP Globe lamp also reflects Verner Panton's knowledge of color theory and the feel-good aspect that the designer believed the home should take into account. The VP Globe hanging lamp works with the contrasts of warm and cold. Through a blue coated reflector, the light is reflected cold on the one hand. Through a red reflector, the light is reflected in warm tones. In addition, the light source with a maximum of 75 watts is concealed by the reflectors and therefore emits glare-free indirect light.

Understandably, the VP Globe does not provide ambient lighting, but it does provide fantastic, accentuated mood lighting that illuminates the immediate surroundings. Suspended individually in a corner or several lights in a row above the dining table or counter - the pendant light VP Globe is extremely versatile and changeable. VP Globe - the world is a globe!
