L61 Saturn Lamp from tecta
The concentric circles of the 1926 Saturn lamp are based on this precept. One of his best-known students was Ati Gropius, Walter Gropius’ daughter, who supported Tecta’s work constructively for decades. The Saturn desk lamp constituted a fundamental design with nothing wasted, based on the design principles of the Bauhaus master and his concept of “economy of form”. A further challenge by Josef Albers in 1926: “How can I create a beautiful three-dimensional structure out of a piece of paper with nothing wasted?”
Tecta had initially conceived “Saturn” as a pendant lamp based on a design by student Arieh Sharon from 1926. The desk lamp followed in 1998. Until this very day, the three-dimensional sculpture of the SATURN lamp is produced by laser cutting in Lauenförde out of flat two-dimensional sheet steel – still distinctively with nothing wasted. The lamp glows like a candle, creating a festive atmosphere. It uses a minimum of material and underlines the lighting philosophy with its streamlined sheet steel. Both the desk and pendant versions are licensed by the label of the Bauhaus Archives.

Tecta is a furniture company based in German Lower Saxony. With the protection and innovative continuation of original Bauhaus models they selected a very prominent field of activity and a very fastidious one. Released by the avant-garde of the 1920s as an risky venture in small-scale production, Tecta managed it exclusively to produce in larger scales today. This has been authorized officially by the Bauhaus archive in Berlin. So Tecta belongs to the leading names when it comes to Bauhaus furniture.
