V-2 SCHNEIDER LAMP, DESIGN STUDIO JOB
V-2
SCHNEIDER
The V-2 rocket from World War II became an icon in the 1950s, a symbol of futuristic
technology and of the American space program. It became iconic among children as the
rocket that took the character Tintin to the moon.
The name V-2 Schneider comes from a track from 1977 by David Bowie, named after
one of the co-founders of Kraftwerk, a big influence on his music. The rocket is a familiar
shape and its glowing light hints to the iconic lava lamp, re-defined for the modern
home. The lamp comes in three different shades of metal finish: gold, silver and copper.
