Paavo Tynell’s legendary lights – now also available as design reissues from Gubi – illuminate Helsinki’s most prestigious public spaces and institutions
Danish design house Gubi is reissuing a series of Paavo Tynell creations to expand its existing collection of Tynell designs. Since 1967, Gubi has been bringing timeless modern icons to today’s audience by harnessing contemporary creative talents and craftsmanship. Working closely with Tynell’s family, the company selected some of the designer’s most cherished lighting pieces.
As you enter the massive main hall, you are enveloped with the warm glow emitted from Tynell’s neoclassical chandeliers suspended from the arched, high ceiling. They were installed in the 1950s after a fire destroyed the earlier, more ornately designed lights. Floral-patterned glass and brass chandeliers and wall lights in the foyer escort you to the check-in counter, where lamps with small brass cone-shaped shades light the area as guests fill out paperwork.
