Verner Panton (1926-1998), the Danish designer who made Switzerland his home, was much more than a master of sixties design. Even though he favoured extravagant designs and the use of strong, vibrant colors, his work was unmistakably rooted in the elegant functionalism of the 1950s. And notwithstanding the fertile imagination and love of experimentation his work demonstrates, he remained a systematic designer thoughout his entire life, who was not content to merely create individual objects, but sought to develop a collection and design the entire room. As such, it is hardly surprising that Verner...

In spite of its close formal resemblance to the VP Globe, the Panto Lamp creates a very different light quality. Its use of lighting techniques is comparable to the Flower Pot. Apart from the acrylic dish, the main difference between these models consists in the fact that the role of the large reflector in the Flower Pot is taken over in the Panto lamp by three shades arranged on top of each other, which divert the light rays downwards. A close relative of the VP Globe is the Ellipse Lamp, designed in the early 1970s. Yet only one model of this lamp was produced, which hung for a long period...

I am not fond of white. The world would be more beautiful without it. There should be a tax on white paint. There are no ugly colours, only ugly combinations of colours. A colour must be judged in the context of other colours - never alone. People get annoyed if one likes colours. They also get annoyed at people with imagination. Most people want what they are used to. Goethe painted the rooms in his Weimar house in different colours. Unwanted guests got a cold blue room which made them leave faster. The dining-room was in warm yellow; there is always sun in a yellow room. Goethe himself worked...
