Lampe Gras 222 wall light, blue/black - DCW

Wall light 222, blue/black – An iconic design classic by Lampe Gras

The 222 wall light is part of a series of lights with an extraordinary design history. Its origins date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed his first designs. This gave rise to an ever-expanding family of luminaires, originally conceived for offices and industrial applications. The combination of robust construction, clean lines and ergonomic design established the series as a prime example of functional design from an early stage. The basic construction requires no screws or welded joints.

Lampe Gras by DCW combines functionalism with an unmistakable aesthetic. Arms, bodies, fittings and other components are precisely coordinated to form an exceptionally well-thought-out construction. The design was far ahead of its time and impressed Le Corbusier early on, who used Lampe Gras lights in his projects.

Today, the lights in this series are counted amongst the world’s best-known design classics and are highly sought-after collector’s items, particularly in France, the USA and Japan. Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has retained its timeless appeal, making the 222 a distinctive example of functional lighting design.
