Modular LED wall lamp in metal with
a cylindrical pivoting shade painted in
light blue. Perriand’s interest in pivoting
screens reflects her observation on human
gestures: a simple touch allows to control
and direct the lighting beam.

Charlotte Perriand, 1930-38
“… after all, design
is about responding
to the gestures of the
human being. Then
there is a side even
beyond this, which
has to do with a sort
of harmony with
oneself, with one’s
environment; this
kind of awareness
affects everything”.
