Origin story
Designed by Bent Karlby in 1959, the MOSAIK collection is an ingenious lighting system based on a simple, geometrical design principle. At the heart of the system is the iconic conical lamp shade and brass tube that allow for several surprising lamp designs. At the time of its release, MOSAIK was a bold and playful piece of lighting design intended for the modern home. And even today, Karlby’s uplifting collection remains as original and contemporary as ever.

Designed by Bent Karlby
Bent Karlby is widely regarded today as one of Denmark’s most productive and versatile lighting designers of the 20th century. He started his collaboration with LYFA in the 1940s, which was a partnership that would last nearly four decades. Bent Karlby is known for his soft light, organic shapes and hallmark peepholes. During his career, Karlby moved more towards pure geometric shapes such as the cone, cylinder and arc along with playful colours as seen with the MOSAIK series.
Lightscape
The playful design concept is cleverly supported by a classic conical lampshade. The cone shape and careful positioning of the light source ensure a soft and optimized light. Through the exposed top, a decorative stream of light escapes illuminating the brass tube connectors.
