Characteristic design of Scandinavian modernism of the mid-twentieth century, articulated by overlapping copper sheets that generate a staggered and dynamic volume. The modular arrangement of the elements allows the light to be filtered, creating warm and enveloping effects typical of the Nordic design of the period. Werner Schou, an active Danish designer linked to the firm Coronell Elektro, stood out for his luminaires with geometric lines and noble materials, in which functionality and aesthetics are integrated with great balance.
