Nils Gustaf von Heidenstam
Gustaf von Heidenstam was the engineer who laid the foundation for Pater Noster’s astounding silhouette. With an innovative iron construction, he created a lighthouse capable of withstanding Bohuslän’s harsh winds and serving as a reliable landmark in darkness and fog.
When we interpret Pater Noster in the form of a lamp, we do so with the same sense of function and expression that defined Heidenstam’s work. A distillation of the coast’s architecture — and a small piece of maritime history to let shine in your home.
The Pater Noster Lighthouse is a classic “Heidenstam Lighthouse” – an open iron tower constructed from standardized modules and truss parts, designed by Nils Gustaf von Heidenstam.
