The Gubi Bestlite BL9 Pendant is an iconic design synonymous with European modernism of the 20th century. Designed by Robert Dudley Best in 1930, the crisp solid structure and functional down light is influenced by the German Bauhaus school of thought which promulgated the blending of fine art and craft. The smooth shade is pleasing to the eye and adheres to minimalist aesthetics for optimal task-oriented down lighting.
