Claus Bonderup (born 1943) and Torsten Thorup (born 1944) both graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts’ School of Architecture in 1969 and subsequently went to work together at Danish architect, Henning Larsen’s studio. The two architects teamed up professionally and worked together for the majority of their careers. Together they’ve designed watches and in-store displays for Georg Jensen, the Arktikum museum in Finland and the harbour area in Elsinore, where they designed everything, from urban planning to the ticket offices.
The Semi lamp was designed in 1968 as a product of the creative partnership between two architecture students, Claus Bonderup and Torsten Thorup. Reacting against the ‘cosy era’ that was dominating Denmark at the time, Bonderup and Thorup wanted to create a lamp that incorporated sharp, clean lines and a geometric shape. Their design was submitted for a competition at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts School of Architecture and won first prize.
In the 80’s Semi achieved great success and became, at that time, the best-selling Danish design object. In addition it gained a lot of worldwide recognition and achieved the place as a design icon. Still it is an elegant and timeless piece of design, which looks gorgeous anywhere.

This pendant lamp is, needless say, one of the greatest design in middle of 20th century. Very simple geometric form is connecting electrical cable. It seems one object between shade and cable. The reason I choosen black one, it become main accent in the room. As it looks like witchy hat, feel like drama as well.

The point which I love on this pendant is the line from the cable to the shade. It seems seamless, and beautiful. The form of the shade has geometrical line. It shows anther image if I see it from different levels. The variation of the color is many. But I like black best, because it has nostalsy atmothphire and goes well the interior in my room.

I am very satisfied with the product. The design blends in with any interior and makes the space look smarter. The delivery to Japan arrived a little later than expected.
