Form, material, and structure existed only to honor illumination. This philosophy resulted in lighting pieces that are architectural yet gentle, functional yet lyrical. Her lamps do not merely illuminate rooms: they shape emotion, rhythm, and space. This is why her work continues to resonate so strongly today.” “Johansson-Pape’s ability to unite atmosphere, clarity, and timeless proportion ensures that her designs feel at home in modern interiors and historical spaces,” Haddadin explains. Exceptional pieces on Incollect from Haddadin Design include a pair of Johansson-Pape’s `Ihanne` table lamps in brass and leather, made by Orno with variations in the stems, materials and shades; a floor lamp, model 30-062 from the 1950s with a repainted green lampshade, also manufactured by Orno; and finally a ceiling pendant “with mouth-blown glass shades with handpainted stars and brass spring decorations,” says Haddadin. “Her lighting continues to be highly sought after today for its obvious beauty and enduring practicality.” Lisa Johansson-Pape Top left: Lisa Johansson-Pape, Ihanne Table Lamps in brass and leather, Orno, 1950s.
