Bella design by Space Copenhagen
Referencing the contours of a four-leaf clover, the Bella chandelier by Space Copenhagen embodies a new exploration of shape and scale in contemporary lighting.
Bella, the new design from Space Copenhagen was originally designed for Restaurant AMBRA in Copenhagen.

Challenged by the lofty interior architecture of the space, the studio sought to create an ambient lamp that brought warmth and cohesion throughout the dining room. The result is Bella – a chandelier whose name references the character of Italian living, its cuisine and the embracive sense of community and social engagement.
Defined by four vertical columns connected by a central bronze pole, the chandelier’s ratios are softened by curved canvas shades. Drawing inspiration from Japanese paper lanterns that appear to hover rather than hang, the design maintains a sense of visual weightlessness. Using a custom-developed textile created specifically for the shades, there is a strong focus on both appearance and tactility when the product is switched on and off.

“It was essential to make a lamp that had a level of simplicity so that its presence would not overpower the other elements within the space,” explains Signe Bindslev Henriksen. “We also wanted to make sure that the value of the chandelier would not be minimised when situated alongside one another.”
When considering the practical utility of the light within the context of the restaurant, Space Copenhagen sought to make atmosphere a central function. “There is a layer of technicality that is required to make sure a space is bright enough, but it is also important to create a cosy atmosphere that can be established at lunchtime and carried later throughout the evening,” Bindslev Henriksen reflects. “These things should be very subtle and feel almost invisible or something that you are not aware of.”
Available in two sizes, Bella is suitable for a variety of spaces. While the larger iteration brings a refined presence to foyers and hospitality environments, the smaller carries the same design language into more intimate settings. Switched on or off, the lamp’s silhouette serves as an eye-catching centrepiece, by virtue of its carefully considered design which capitalises on the union of form and scale.
