The lamps, the carpet and the Pantonova sofa are now adjusted a little better in the turquoise room.

ORIGINAL SHELL CEILING
I was on a little “Pantour” last weekend… This place was one of the things I checked out. The original musselshell ceiling from the Panton famillie´s residence in Binningen is lend out to the Kunsthalle Basel for the coming years. When checking the ceiling closer I also beleive some ceiling panels might be from their […]
TYPE B FORMATION
At last! The Flowerpot cluster Type B is ready and up.
LUMINOUS WALL ELEMENT
Blue and yellow prototype for the “Luminous Wall Element” made ca 1969. It has been several later made copies around but this is one of two originals still existing. This panel is attached in a box of mirrors to duplicate the panels when you look inside this box. The blue and yellow panel was the […]
ASHTRAY FROM DER SPIEGEL
Some more pictures of the medium sized ashtray in green-grey enamel that arrived yesterday. The ashtray belonged to a co-worker at Der Spiegel in Hamburg. I haven’t seen this color before but know each floor of the publishing house had one main color.
MORE LIGHTS
At last light in all lamps. Next step is to attach the cluster to the ceiling but also to adjust the sofa and the position of the single Flowerpot lamps you see to the right over the sofa.

NEW “T4” PICTURES
Some better pictures of the super cool Deck Chair “T4”.
NEW PLACE
Some new pictures of the “Type A” Ball Lamp in it´s new place. Looks much better like this since you see it through the door frame. We have plans to paint that room purple but also to put up mirrors that completelly covers the background wall. The orange Ring lamps will probably move into that […]
NEW FOAM
Today I opened the old cushions for the Bachelor Chair to change the foam. I was a bit surpriced what I found in there… A pair of scissors that probably have been in the cushion since it was made about 55 years ago! It says “Garantie Reinståhl” on it. The cushions turned out great with […]
NEW CHAIR TODAY
Today I got this early version of the Bachelor Chair in raw leather. I like this version with both the seating and the back cushion. The former owners at the danish island Borgholm got it from their friends in 1972 who bought it in the early 60:ies.
TYP H IN CHROME
A new Ball lamp for the collection just arrived from France. Better pictures will come later.
