GUBI’s launch of new colors for the Gräshoppa Collection
coincides with a renewed global appreciation for 1970s
aesthetics – characterized by earthy, natural shades, as well
as shiny, gleaming surfaces. The three new finishes capture
both the love of nature and the inclination towards high-gloss
textures that defined the decade.
Walnut Brown is one of the most instantly recognizable colors
of the 1970s – a rustic shade reminiscent of raw earth and tree
bark. At a time when more and more of us are seeking to bring
the consolation of nature into our homes through our color
choices, Walnut Brown is an ideal option for those seeking a
grounding color that instantly evokes ’70s style in a modern-
day context.
Alabaster White is a rich cream – a shade that offers the versatility
of a neutral without the severity of a pure white, introducing a
welcoming warmth to the atmosphere. In contrast, the Black
edition underlines the Gräshoppa’s identity as a statement
piece, emphasizing the design’s distinctive silhouette.
Originally designed in the 1950s, Grossman’s Gräshoppa Floor
Lamp has become one of the most beloved designs in GUBI’s
lighting collection, attracting a devoted following thanks to
the way it expresses the form of its namesake insect in just
a few simple lines. The Floor Lamp's blend of elegance and
playfulness is echoed in the Table Lamp and Pendant, allowing
Grossman’s unique design language to serve every household
lighting function.
