| Meer info | The truth is, decorative art is equipment, beautiful equipment, Le Corbusier, L'Art decoratif d'aujourd'hui This book traces the history of an encounter between a remarkable invention, half-industrial half-design object, and one of the most famous architects of the 20th century. Created in 1921, the Gras lamp holds a unique place in the history of lighting. A revolutionary design of marvelous simplicity, its original purpose was to meet the needs of the booming manufacturing and retail sectors. The young Le Corbusier, passionate about the challenges of interior lighting, adopted it as his own from the early 1920s on. Thanks to its remarkable functionality, this lamp also perfectly corresponded to his desire to break with decoration and ornament, and the architect went on to utilize it in his studio in the rue de Sevres in Paris as well as his home. He also placed it in many of the interiors of the houses he designed: the Villa Le Lac (Switzerland), the Villa La Roche (Paris), the Guiette House (Antwerp), the Villa Savoye (Poissy), and the villa belonging to his friend Eileen Gray in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. Relying on rich photographic documentation from the period, the book goes through the history of the Gras lamp, its patents and various models, but it also enables the reader to rediscover Le Corbusier's interior designs through the prism of this icon of design, as he was one of this lamp's main promoters in modern times.

Le Corbusier, L'Art decoratif d'aujourd'hui. Creee en 1921, la lampe Gras tient une place inedite dans l'histoire du luminaire. D'une conception revolutionnaire et d'une grande sobriete, elle a vocation a satisfaire aussi bien le monde de l'industrie que le secteur tertiaire alors en plein essor. Le jeune Le Corbusier, passionne par la problematique de la lumiere, l'adopte et se l'approprie des le debut des annees 20. D'une fonctionnalite remarquable, cette lampe repond aussi parfaitement a son besoin de rupture avec la decoration et l'ornement, ce qui amenera l'architecte a l'integrer dans son atelier de la rue de Sevres a Paris comme dans son domicile, ou elle sert aussi bien a eclairer ses tables de travail que les plateaux de tables de salle a manger. |
