Lampe Gras 312 Ceiling Light – a timeless classic for the ceiling

The Lampe Gras 312 ceiling light epitomises the unmistakable fusion of functionality and aesthetics. Its clean, minimalist design makes it a timeless design classic that can be seamlessly integrated into a wide variety of interior schemes.

The origins of the Lampe Gras series date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed the first designs for his lights. Originally conceived for offices and industrial applications, the series impressed with its simple, robust yet ergonomic design. The basic construction was realised without screws or welded joints.

The design of the individual components – such as the body of the light, fittings and joints – in particular testifies to an extraordinary level of ingenuity. Functionality and aesthetics combine to create a design language that was far ahead of its time even at the moment of its creation.

Le Corbusier was an early admirer of the modern design of the Lampe Gras and incorporated the lights into his projects. Today, the models are regarded worldwide as sought-after design classics and collectors’ items. Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has proved to be timeless to this day.

As a ceiling light, the 312 adds a striking architectural accent and is ideal for the stylish illumination of living, working or passageway areas.
