Lampe Gras 304 wall light: Iconic design with elegant copper accents

The Lampe Gras 304 wall light in black/black/copper by DCW combines the striking design language of a design classic with elegant copper details. Its history dates 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 was characterised by its simple, robust and, at the same time, ergonomic design. The basic construction required no screws or welded joints.

The Lampe Gras series epitomises the successful fusion of functionalism 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 DCW’s Lampe Gras series are among the world’s most sought-after design classics and collector’s items. They are particularly popular in France, the USA and Japan. Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has proved to be timeless. In the black/black/copper version of the Lampe Gras 304, the warm copper tone provides an elegant contrast to the black elements and lends the wall light a particularly distinctive character.
