Asea AB, founded in 1883, was a Swedish electro-technical company headquartered in Västerås. The historic company not only produced high-quality lighting, but has had a decisive influence on how the Swedish lighting industry has developed. This ceiling lamp is a result of the collaboration between the Asea and design icon, Hans Bergström. The beautiful modernist design of this piece is based on timelessness and precision.

What the Danes call Hygge, the Swedes call Lagom, which refers to clean design that can be enjoyed without being distracted by too many details. The straightforward, effective, yet sophisticated approach to design is present in this ceiling lamp. The brass structure is quite traditional with a cone-shaped base that holds five symmetrically arranged arms, each featuring downward-facing white glass shades. While flush mount lighting sits directly against the ceiling, a semi-flush mount fixture, like this model, is suspended, leaving a small gap between the ceiling and the fixture. This allows for the light to be better distributed across a room, aided by the high number of light bulbs and their shades which produce an ambient atmosphere. When turned on, the warm light brightens up the brass’s colour creating a warm and cosy impression.

This classic ceiling lamp is the result of the simple, yet effective ethos that prioritises functionality, and the Swedish idea of “good design”. Ceiling fixtures, such as this model have the power to transform a space into a haven of relaxation while bringing a stylish touch to a room.
