A.Wedel-Madsen

A. Wedel-Madsen was a Danish technical model maker who almost by accident became a celebrated figure in Scandinavian design history. In 1951 A. Wedel-Madsen designed a light, aluminium ceiling lamp to meet the requirements of his workshop and to replace traditional bulky and rigid workspace lighting. After the Danish manufacturer, Made by Hand, reissued production of the timeless Workshop lamp, the minimalist luminaire has found its way into countless kitchens, living rooms and public spaces giving it and its creator an iconic status.
