Gubi Multi-Lite – unique light control through adjustable shade segments

With Multi-Lite, Louis Weisdorf designed a convertible lamp in 1972, whose iconic design fascinates to this day. Trademarks of the Gubi lamp are the geometric shade elements: two cylinders as well as two quarter spheres that can be joined together to form a hemisphere. A metal ring encloses the shade segments, forming the outer frame.

By simply adjusting the segments, you can change the design of the luminaire as well as the lighting effect. Depending on how you align the elements, the light shines upwards, downwards, in both directions or provides asymmetrical lighting in the room.

Thus, Gubi Multi-Lite presents itself as a versatile lighting solution that provides either direct or/and indirect light. The luminaire reflects Weisdorf's passion for diversity as well as his preference for objects that users can interact with and change.

The pendant, floor and table lamp by Gubi are each available in different colors and as a brass or chrome version.

Multi-Lite pendant luminaire – variable lighting for tables and counters

The Multi-Lite pendant light is a noble eye-catcher above the dining or coffee table as well as above the kitchen counter. While one of the lights is sufficient above small tables, several of the stylish hanging lights are recommended for large, long tables.

Thanks to the flexibly adjustable lighting effect, you can choose between direct zone light for the table or indirect room light. Would you like to combine both? That is also possible thanks to the versatile adjustment options of the shade segments.

Louis Weisdorf – a specialist of versatility

Louis Weisdorf was a renowned Danish architect and industrial designer. One of the youngest designers, he graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen in 1954. He spent a total of 10 years of his notable design career working at Trivoli Gardens, an amusement park in Copenhagen. There he served as assistant to chief architect Simon P. Henningsen, son of star designer Poul Henningsen.

In 1967 he opened his own design studio in the Danish capital, which he shared with Ole Panton, architect and brother of Verner Panton. The two worked just as closely with the latter as with Poul Henningsen.

Louis Weisdorf described himself as a specialist in versatility, as evidenced by his multifaceted designs. Among other things, he was responsible for the former ticket office for the harbor and canal tour in Copenhagen.

The Dane was fascinated by simple design principles and repetitive forms. This preference is expressed not only in the Gubi Multi-Lite, but in many of his lamps – including the Turbo pendant lamp. Designed in 1965, which went into production two years later, the pendant lamp is simple in form but complex in structure: its shade is composed of twelve spiral slats that shield the light well for glare-free illumination. Louis Weisdorf received the iF Design Award for the sculptural pendant luminaire.
