Description
The Kupetz Union is a lighting accessory from our Kupetz range: a round white globe held beneath a brushed gold-coloured cylindrical cap, set on a slim black rod that runs out to either side. It is a single globe, simple in outline, with the cap sitting snugly over its crown like a lid. We list it at 250cm tall, 106.6cm wide and 15cm across, so check those figures against the space you have in mind. The soft white of the globe against the warm gold of the cap and the black of the rod gives it a quiet, graphic look that works in a plain room as well as a busy one.
It is rated IP20 and made for indoor use, so it belongs in dry rooms: a living room, a dining room, a hallway, a bedroom or a study. The clean geometry suits a modern interior, and the mix of black, gold and white sits comfortably with pale walls and darker schemes alike. It suits someone who wants lighting with a clear, architectural line rather than a fabric shade or a decorative frame, and who likes to see how a piece is put together.
Its protection class is Class I, which means it is an earthed fitting. The design is credited to e27, Tim Brauns, and that shows in the restraint of the piece: three plain forms, a rod, a cap and a globe, joined with nothing added for show. On the practical side, IP20 means it should stay well away from steam and splashes, and with a height of 250cm and a width of 106.6cm it wants a room with generous clearance, so measure your space before you decide where it goes. The Kupetz light head in our photographs is not included.
