Designed by Bernard Schottlander
As admirer of Alexander Calder, in 1951 Schottlander created the Mantis series of lamps. Movement is intrinsic to all of Schottlander’s work: an artist, an engineer and in no small measure a handyman, he devised a clever system of counterweights combined with a series of strong, and flexible metal bars. The shade also is unique of its kind. Like an acrobat suspended in mid-air, it is made from aluminium using spinning and chasing techniques that are a part of the metalworker???Ǩ?Ѣs inventory of skills, but to which he has brought his sculptor???Ǩ?Ѣs eye to create a helical movement in which the symmetrical and the asymmetrical are in opposition.

Thierry Dreyfus has created a lamp designed to provide light, of course, but even more, to light up the intimate, and even better, to light up the night, softly. A white object, soothing by day, calming at night, La lampe B is a sincere gesture.

Inspired by geometric shapes and mathematical objects, Armen is a game of imbrication and balance between two simple forms: the cone and the sphere. Like the eponymous lighthouse, the light is guided by the three cones.

At the head of the bed or next to a sofa, Vision 20/20 has been developed to achieve the maximum sharpness by adjusting the power of the light with a large rotational angle. This lens allows you to read comfortably without straining your eyesight. Its design is direct, without frills: a reading tool.
