Lampe Gras 222 wall light: Classic design with high-contrast colour scheme

The Lampe Gras 222 wall light in black and white by DCW combines iconic design with a striking, high-contrast colour scheme. Its origins date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed the first designs for his pioneering series of lights. Originally conceived for offices and industrial applications, the series impressed with its simple, robust yet ergonomic design. The basic construction required no screws or welded joints.

The lights in the Lampe Gras series embody a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics. Characteristic elements such as the arms, bodies and fittings were designed with great care and assembled into a well-thought-out overall structure. The extraordinary design language was far ahead of its time. Le Corbusier was fascinated by the modern design of the Lampe Gras from an early stage and incorporated the lights into his projects.

Today, the lights in the Lampe Gras series by DCW are highly sought-after design classics and collectors’ items worldwide. They are particularly popular in France, the USA and Japan. Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has proved to be timeless. The black-and-white version of the Lampe Gras 222 creates a stylish contrast and blends harmoniously into both modern and classically designed interiors.
