In 1921, Bernard-Albin Gras created a range of lamps for industry and design offices. The Lampe GRAS is astonishing by its ergonomics and the simplicity of its mechanics - no screws, no welding - which gives it foolproof robustness.

Early on Le Corbusier was seduced by the modern design and user-friendliness of the lamps and became one of Bernard-Albin GRAS’s most enthusiastic supporters using the lamps in his own offices as well as employing them in numerous architectural projects all over the world. The Lampe GRAS then became a legend.
