Biny Spot

Wall lamp in steel and aluminium, with or without switch. Biny in a few words: efficiency, simplicity, sobriety and elegance. This spotlight straight out of the world of Jules Verne allows 330° rotation and 88° tilt in order to direct and focus the beam on a specific area, to read without disturbing your neighbour.
In 1955, Jacques Biny opened Luminalite, his workshop for producing modern lighting. Modern, before its time, the Designer-Manufacturer who was born in 1913 developed over 400 models during a 30 year career. Jacques Biny’s hallmark was rigour and he never stopped in his quest to improve how homes were lit. Functionality was primary, the lack of superfluity in the form reminiscent of the minimalist movement that was gaining currency in American art during the 1960’s, which may go to explain why his work is as popular with American collectors as it is with Europeans. Efficiency and simplicity, restraint, elegance and modesty are the common denominators in Jacques Biny’s work.
