Berlin, Germany
Designed by German designer Daniel Becker, the Charlotte pendant stages light with a noble yet minimalistic brass frame structure.
Based in Berlin, Becker was inspired by the traces, which the 1920’s left in the city while looking for a striking visual motif.
The newest generation of filament LEDs are remarkably thin while still being completely even and homogeneous in their light output.
They have no visible dots anymore and draw a sharp, intense line.
His target was to use those thin filaments in a non-engineered aesthetic, with an elegance that is not sacrificing on technical sophistication and testing limits.
After a thorough creative process, he achieved an unusually lightweight design out of brass, which is a solid, gracefully aging material.
When turned off, Charlotte is a refined sculptural object with subtle technical detailing referencing heavy metalwork.
Turned on, its light sources seem to float in space weightlessly.
The proportions of the luminaire have been designed to fit large tables.
He took great care about its light distribution, the two upper LED sources emit the light directly upwards, the other two illuminate the table surface generously.
Charlotte fills the space with a highly pleasant, non-blinding light.
The construction of the fixture is reduced to the essential minimum.
Becker managed to safely use the frame structure to provide the electricity for the LEDs and avoided any visible cables.
It is handmade and finished in Germany.
