Description

The Double Bubble outdoor lamp is a weather-proof version of Eero Aarnio's distinctive lighting design introduced originally in 2003. Characterised by a playful, almost cheeky expression typical of Aarnio's creations, Double Bubble is celebrated as a masterpiece of modern Finnish design.

Like its indoor sibling, the Double Bubble outdoor luminaire is fitted with three light sources to ensure an even distribution of light: there's one in each bubble and one in the leg. Additionally, the outdoor lamp has a large metal plate at the bottom to stabilise it in outdoor environments and to allow it to be mounted to the decking, for example. Double Bubble, or Tupla Kupla in Finnish, measures a whopping 51.18 in (130 cm) in height, so it is like an illuminated – and illuminating – sculpture for the terrace, patio, balcony or garden.

Eero Aarnio

Eero Aarnio (b. 1932) is a Finnish designer and professor h.c. and is considered one of the great innovators of modern furniture design. During the years, Aarnio has experimented with a variety of different materials, including plastic, fibreglass and foam plastic. With these materials he has created some of the icons of Finnish design such as the Ball Chair (1962), Bubble Chair (1968) and Pastil Chair (1968), just to name a few.  

Famous for his furniture, Eero Aarnio is renowned also for his lamps – such as Double Bubble and Swan – and has proven his skills as a wood designer as well – for example with the Rocket bar stool and the Baby Rocket stool are excellent examples of his wooden designs. Eero Aarnio’s designs are characterized by a positive attitude and joyful nature, exemplified in works like the playful Puppy or the lovely Dino.

Aarnio’s creations are present in the collections of numerous museums worldwide – including the Victoria and Albert Hall Museum in London, the MoMA in New York, the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, Germany and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris – and he has won many prestigious international design awards, such as the Red Dot Design Award and the Compasso d’Oro Design Award.
