The design
Stockholm-based designer Fredrik Paulsen has introduced Pendant One, a pendant lamp for his brand JOY. The lamp draws on Japanese postmodernism and Italian anti-design. It comes in two sizes, Pendant One (60) and the smaller Pendant One (30), and carries the same playful approach that runs through the rest of the JOY collection.
Two sizes
JOY describes the larger Pendant One (60) as the light by which we travel “into this and that”. The smaller Pendant One (30) is presented as the more intimate of the two, a lamp for a space without too many people around.
Technical details
Both sizes are delivered without a ceiling outlet. The cable ends in a connector block for wiring to an existing ceiling connection. Pendant One is CE-marked, made for 220–240 V / 50–60 Hz and intended for the EU/EEA.
About JOY
JOY makes products for the home: furniture, objects and ornaments. Fredrik Paulsen founded the brand in 2021 as an open space for his own work. The idea is to combine simple construction with playful aesthetics, and forward-looking style with small-scale production at a reasonable price. All JOY objects are designed and manufactured in Sweden, and everything packs flat.
