Radon by Hans Sandgren Jakobsen for Lightyears

Universal construction through geometric fascination

The fundamental geometric forms – the circle and the triangle – are key elements in the design of the Radon series. Hans Sandgren Jakobsen is fascinated by the geometric simplicity and thus, he has created design in an utterly clean form where each detail is justified. The circle consists of a halfsphere, while the leg construction forms a universal triangle that ensures the lamp’s stability and balance.

Flexible choice of materials

Radon is a light and mobile lamp, made of moulded materials and mounted with rubber feet so it stands firm. The neck at the shade provides flexibility and brings the lamp to life. There is also some air between the shade and the reflector, which insulates and allows you to handle the shade. The switch is placed at the top of the lamp, while the cord leads discreetly out of the back leg to help preserve the lamp’s clean lines.

Direct, adjustable light

The light from Radon is direct and adjustable. The shade is multi-directional and furnished with an asymmetrical reflector, ensuring that light spreads out precisely to the surface where it is needed.
