In the second film in the 'REFLECTIONS' series, ‘50 Years of Colour’, we delve into the history of Verner Panton's design with some experts from the industry.

When we think of Danish design – highly saturated colours, indulgent fabrics, plastic, and mind-bending shapes are not usually what spring to mind. Nevertheless, this is what Verner Panton is known for and what makes his designs popular, relevant and acknowledged today.

This film was released as a tribute to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of Panton’s timeless design classic — the Panthella lamp.

The Panthella lamp was designed in 1971 and has become a true icon. It is a perfect example of Panton’s brilliant sense of atmospheric illumination and his ability to transform a room with his innovative designs.

A special thanks to The Panton family and Verner Panton Design AG for letting us share their archival material, as part of this film.
