The Dahl Wall Lamp was originally designed by Birger Dahl in 1956 for therenovation of Norway’s Parliament building. Mounted alongside his chandeliers and pendants, it shared the same elegant geometry that made Dahl one of the pioneersof modern Scandinavian lighting.
Minimalist yet distinctive, it works beautifully on its own, in pairs, or arranged in series. Available in black with brass details, the lamp blends seamlessly into bothclassic and modern interiors.
Part of the original Dahl series, the wall lamp continues the legacy of one ofNorway’s most celebrated designers, bringing mid-century refinement intocontemporary spaces.
Birger Dahl
Award-winning designer Birger Dahl (1916 - 1998) was a pioneer of contemporary Scandinavian lighting. The mid-century years were a formative period of his work, when he forged his signature streamlined style and launched a new vision of lighting design.
Dahl’s career had actually begun the previous decade, when he became head of design at Norwegian electronics firm Sønnico and created the award-winning Dokka pendant lamp. Dokka was the first lamp in Norway to receive a Gold Medal award at the prestigious Triennale di Milano, which brought Norwegian lighting under the international spotlight.While acclaimed for his lighting designs, Dahl is also considered to be one of Norway’s leading Post-war interior architects. Strict geometric shapes, such as circles, cones and cylinders, were the building blocks of Dahl’s design vocabulary, which he softened with gentle contours.
He emphasised the purity of form, highlighting the shape of the object rather than hiding it behind decorative details or layers of ornamentation. Sensibilities like these explain why his work still appears modern today, and why lighting designs such as Dokka, Birdy and Dahl are so compatible with the interiors of our time.
