Lampe Gras 304 wall light, white/red – DCW

A design classic with real character: the Lampe Gras 304 wall light in white and red by DCW

The Lampe Gras 304 wall light combines the characteristic design language of a historic design classic with a striking colour scheme in white and red. Its history dates back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed the first designs for his series of lights.

Originally intended for use in offices and industrial settings, the series stood out from the outset for its simple, robust yet ergonomic design. The basic construction was exceptionally well thought-out and required no screws or welded joints.

The lights in DCW’s Lampe Gras series are regarded as outstanding examples of the fusion of functionalism and aesthetics. Every detail – from the arms and the body right through to the fittings and the assembly of the individual components – follows a clear and well-thought-out design. The design language was far ahead of its time.

Le Corbusier, too, recognised the qualities of this modern design early on and incorporated lights from the Lampe Gras series into his projects. To this day, the collection continues to inspire with its unmistakable appearance and functional design.

Worldwide, the lamps from the Lampe Gras series are sought-after design classics and collectors’ items. They enjoy particular popularity in France, the USA and Japan. Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has retained its timeless appeal, making the 304 wall light a striking focal point.
