Gubi H2o Pendant Pendant Light

H2O Pendant Light

The Pedrera H2O pendant light, featuring typical perforation, is part of Gubi's Pedrera lighting collection. The product's name is derived from La Pedrera, the nickname for Casa Pedrera in Barcelona. In 1955, the property management company Corsini was asked to convert the attic into new apartments. Subsequently, Corsini designed the Pedrera lighting series and the three-legged glass table of the same name. The cylindrical chimney of Antonio Gaudi's architecture inspired the shape of the light.

Interiors made by Corsini were removed and most were discarded. During the renovation, architect and gallerist Joaquim Ruiz Millet discovered the PD2 floor lamp and rescued it from the trash. This led to the creation of the H2O pendant light. Ruiz Millet began collaborating with Corsini and his designs, recreating the original pieces, particularly to preserve his creations for greater recognition and use by the public. The design was playfully reimagined in 2009, and you can order it online here.
