Artek A201 Pendant Light
Manufacturer: Artek | Designer: Alvar Aalto, 1952
The A201 was designed by Alvar Aalto for the library of Säynätsalo Town Hall in central Finland. Formed from sheet steel, it has a sculptural quality that reads whether the light is on or off — the shade’s geometry is the point. When lit, light exits from both the lower and upper openings, creating a soft halo effect that reflects Aalto’s consistent pursuit of indirect, diffused artificial light. The white and brass finish is a direct reference to the triple variation of this pendant (the A203) that hung above the dining table in the Aaltos’ private Helsinki home.

- Shade and ring: Formed sheet steel
- Finish: White with brass details
