Hashira by Audo Copenhagen – Light like a Column

Some lights hang in the room. This one stands in it.

Hashira – the Japanese word for column – is a collection designed by Norm Architects for Audo Copenhagen. The cylindrical body, the matte textile surface, the graphic pattern: when turned off, each lamp seems almost understated. Only when the light is switched on does it show what it's all really about.

Because the textile covering does not simply let the light pass through – it transforms it. Soft, warm, with an amber-colored shimmer, it spreads in all directions. No glare, no hard edges. Just a glow that calms the room from within.

This is exactly the hallmark of Audo Cph: combining the familiar, homey with style-conscious Scandinavian design. And that of Norm Architects, whose work repeatedly brings a subtle Japanese clarity to Nordic spaces.

The collection includes table lamp, floor lamp, and pendant lamp – also as a cluster – all in the same design language. This makes Hashira more than just a single light: you can combine them, stack them, distribute them throughout the room. In the living room, in the bedroom, in the hotel.

A lighting concept in one form. And an atmosphere that lasts.
