danish native niclas jørgensen furniture and product designer based in copenhagen and berlin has presented during biennale interieur in kortrijk a lighting series called ‘stadium’. with a recently founded studio, jørgensen focuses on a new nordic design approach — which is still in development. his work is often described as a subtle balance between mid-century classic scandinavian design and a new type of contemporary minimalist aesthetic. the lighting set follows a set of principles influenced by traditional danish design values.

for his first lighting collection, design academy eindhoven graduate and michael anastassiades pupil, niclas jørgensen’s ‘stadium collection’ comes in two variations: stadium light I and stadium light II. both of them contain opaline glass spheres and are made of brass or stainless steel with a satin finish. the different variations include gold, silver, and black. the lighting objects, although minimalist in their design, showcase a strong overall aesthetic while referencing the lights that illuminate stadiums.
