Designed by iconic American designer George Nelson in 1947, and first produced in 1952, the Bubble lamp was a revolution in the modern lamp industry. Available in different sizes and organic shapes, this elegant collection is inspired by a set of Swedish silk lights that Nelson wanted for his office but found too expensive. Employing the ingenuity that so characterises his work, he decided to use a spray plastic, developed by the US military, and apply it to a lightweight steel structure to produce these luminous sculptures. Iconic and timeless, this suspension lamp reissued by Hay will find its place in all interior styles, on its own or in a composition of different shapes and sizes.
Born in Connecticut in 1908, George Nelson studied architecture at Yale University before obtaining a scholarship to study at the American Academy in Rome. From 1935 to 1944, he was a member of the editorial board of the Architectural Forum. He was then spotted by the head of the Herman Miller furniture company, where he was subsequently appointed Director of Design until 1972. George Nelson set up his own agency in 1947 and designed numerous products that are considered icons of modernism. At the same time, he began working with Vitra in 1957. His iconic creations, which include a wide range of furniture, lighting and clocks, include the Coconut Chair, the Marshmallow Sofa and the Bubble hanging lamps. Particular attention is paid to the choice of materials and lightness. On his death in 1986 in New York, the archives of George Nelson, considered to be the founder of American modernism, were donated to the Vitra Design Museum.
Hay, the iconic brand of Danish design, founded in 2002, is now a key reference in contemporary Scandinavian furniture. By collaborating with renowned designers such as Hee Welling and the brothers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, Hay Design offers iconic creations such as the About a Chair collection and the outdoor range Palissade, which perfectly embody the spirit of Scandinavian design furniture.
