In addition to his work at Taito Oy, Tynell worked together with architects to create light fixtures for different public spaces. In his design he developed new ways of aiming the light to create indirect lighting to achieve a softer, more atmospheric light. This kind of lighting made Tynell’s luminaires popular in restaurants and other spaces where the atmosphere was more important than bright lighting.
