Marset Soho Pendant

The Marset Soho Pendant, designed by Joan Gaspar for Marset, is a low-profile ceiling pendant that interprets a classic drum silhouette with contemporary restraint. The shallow, wide shade and subtle geometric rim create a calm, modern presence while the opal diffuser and lighter interior reflect light downwards for practical illumination.

Its form is intentionally minimalist: a slightly tapered, drum-shaped shade with a short cylindrical neck meets a thin suspension cable for an uncluttered junction to the ceiling. The Soho is offered in a choice of finishes and control options, including colourways and DALI or dimmable variants to suit project requirements.

The shade is manufactured in rotary-moulded polyethylene with a methacrylate opal diffuser, giving a durable, lightweight construction and a softened light quality. The exterior has a matt finish with a fine horizontal texture that adds a tactile note and reduces visible reflections.

The wide, open base and lighter inner surface provide a broad spread of directed downlight, useful for task or general ambient layers where controlled glare and clear illumination are needed. The thin cable allows adjustable hanging heights so the pendant can be set for dining, over counters or as a restrained ceiling fixture.

Installation and practical notes: the fixture’s opal diffuser helps moderate glare; check variant specifications for control protocol (DALI or standard dimmable options). The product is supplied with a 2-year defects-only warranty.
