When we think of luxurious yet restrained design in the spirit of modernism, it is hard not to mention Florian Schulz. This German designer has created more than just lamps – he has designed sculptures of light that have gracefully stood the test of time.
One of his most recognizable designs is the Onos 55 pendant lamp, whose form combines the purity of geometry with extraordinary functionality.
The lamp is made of solid brass – a material that not only ages beautifully but also reflects light in a soft, noble way.
Onos 55 is a lamp that fits perfectly into the mid-century modernist aesthetic, characterized by simplicity of form and functionality. Its timeless design makes it ideal for both modern and classic interiors, such as dining rooms, living rooms, and office spaces.
Thanks to its functionality and elegant design, the Onos 55 lamp remains one of the most highly regarded designs in the history of modern lighting design.
The counterweight construction is a patented concept by Schulz, visible in the Onos, Posa, and Duos models.
It is this detail—the counterweight sphere—that makes Schulz lamps instantly recognizable. It is more than just a mechanism; it is an element of visual balance, suspended between function and form.
It allows the height of the lampshade to be adjusted with a single hand movement – an elegant and practical solution.
When switched on, the lamp emits a warm, focused light, ideal for a dining table, kitchen island, or reading area. The lampshade shields the light source, directing it exactly where it is needed without glare.
Florian Schulz was a pioneer of German functional lighting in the 1960s and 1970s. He combined modernity with traditional craftsmanship, designing lamps that still look contemporary today.
