&Tradition P376 Pendant KF2 | Kastholm & Fabricius 1963 | Architectural Scale | Matte White or Aluminium

The P376 KF2 Pendant Light is the large-scale expression of Kastholm and Fabricius's 1963 masterpiece — a pendant that operates at the scale of architecture rather than furniture. At Ø 27.56", the KF2 is designed for the spaces where a smaller pendant would simply vanish: double-height living rooms, open-plan commercial interiors, restaurant dining rooms, and the kind of residential project where the lighting is expected to carry equal weight with the architecture itself.

The same sweeping, single-gesture shade that defines the KF1 is here expanded to a scale that commands a room with genuine authority. Available in Matte White and Aluminium, the KF2's downward-facing shade creates a focused, clean pool of light beneath it — precise without being clinical, generous without being indiscriminate. This is the pendant for the room that has been waiting for its focal point.

Why It Enhances Your Space
Large spaces suffer when their lighting is timid. The KF2 is the opposite of timid — its scale fills the visual field with intent, its sweeping form draws the eye upward and outward, and its clean downward light defines the zone beneath it as a place of deliberate gathering. In a restaurant or hotel lobby, it creates atmosphere from the moment of entry. In a residential double-height living room, it becomes the organizing gesture from which all other design decisions flow. This is the pendant you commission, not simply buy.

Why the Design & Quality Justify the Investment
At $2,310, the KF2 is among the most significant purchases in the &Tradition catalog — and it is priced proportionally to its significance. Kastholm and Fabricius's 1963 original was rarely seen in production for decades; &Tradition's decision to bring it back was driven by recognition of its importance to the design canon. The KF2 is manufactured with the same precision steel and finish quality that the design has always demanded. For a large architectural space that deserves a centerpiece, this is it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What ceiling height does the KF2 require?
A: The KF2 is best suited to ceiling heights of 10 feet and above, and truly comes into its own in spaces of 12–20 feet. For standard 8-foot ceilings, the KF1 is the more appropriate choice.

Q: Is the KF2 suitable for residential use?
A: Yes — the KF2 is frequently specified for residential double-height volumes, open-plan loft spaces, and generous dining rooms where the scale of the pendant is proportional to the scale of the room. Its form is residential in origin; its scale simply demands space.

Q: How does the KF2 differ from the KF1?
A: The KF2 (Ø 27.56") is significantly larger than the KF1 (Ø 19.69") and is designed for architectural-scale spaces. Both share the same sweeping P376 form, but the KF2 creates a visual presence that the KF1 cannot replicate in large volumes.

Q: Is the bulb included?
A: No — the KF2 uses an E26 bulb (max 100W), sold separately. A warm LED E26 at 2700K is recommended.
