Architect Lamp
At Lampmasters.co.uk you'll find a wide selection of flexible and practical lights. The Architect lamp is one of the most popular in functional lighting and therefore comes in countless different versions. Common to all types of architectural lights is the flexibility of the bendable arm combined with a concentrated task light and often a design that refers to the retro style. Whether your home is characterised by a classic or modern style, there is an architectural lamp that fits in.
Among the most popular architectural lighting is Artemide's Tolomeo series, which offers everything from table lamps in different sizes to floor lamps and wall lights. The series has won several awards since the first Tolomeo table lamp was launched in 1987 and is today a recognised and popular lamp.
From British brand Anglepoise, the architect lamp is available as wall, table, floor and ceiling lights with a modern touch and an industrial look. Of particular note is their 2014 relaunch, the Type 75, which features eye-catching colour combinations in collaboration with British fashion designer Paul Smith. Perfect as a contrast to the white walls in Scandinavian interiors, or as a desk or night light in children's rooms.
Architect lamp for wall or with base
The first architectural lamp was invented in the 1920s by Bernard Albin-Gras. His work lamp with a flexible arm in the form of a ball joint was a revolutionary invention. It was used in many offices, sewing rooms, laboratories and other places where a great working light was needed. The lamp quickly became popular and widely used among architects, which is why it was named the 'Architect's Lamp'. Albin-Gras later sold the rights to his lamp, which was put into production under the name Gras lamp. Several of the Gras lamps were relaunched in 2008 by three Frenchmen who founded the brand Lampe Gras at the same time.
The flexible ball joints were replaced with the spring combination we know from the classic architectural lamp in 1932 by British engineer George Carwadine. In 1934, the lamp was put into production under the name Anglepoise 1203, followed by the more elegant version Anglepoise 1227. The latter was relaunched in 2003 and is now produced and sold under the name Original 1227.
Today, the architectural lamp is not only seen in many workplaces but has also found its way into many private homes. The flexible lamp has found its place as a reading light on the wall, a night light, practical lighting over the workspace in the kitchen or on the desk in the children's room.
