Description

Nemo Lighting's Applique Radieuse wall lamp is a masterpiece by Le Corbusier, created in 1949. The French designer, who was a pioneer of functional and modern design, designed the original Applique Radieuse lamps to lit the entrances to the famous Unité d'Habitation residential building in Marseille. The wall lamp's recognisable silhouette light of a curved metal plate which hides the light source behind it. 

The Applique Radieuse luminaire is available in the same iconic colours as those found above the doors of the housing unit. The lamp adds a delightful splash of colour to both living room and bedroom walls, and will also adorn public spaces, either on its own or as a charmingly multicolour combination of a few different coloured lamps.

Le Corbusier

Charles-Édouard Jeanneret-Gris (1887-1965) was a Swiss architect, artist, designer, urban planner and writer, best known for his achievements in modern architecture. He adopted the name Le Corbusier, a pseudonym of his grandmother’s last name Lecorbésier, in 1920 in the first issue of the L’Esprit Nouveau journal.

Le Corbusier started his studies at the La Chaux-de-Fonds art school at the age of thirteen and soon shifted from watchmaking to painting and architecture. He designed his first house in 1905, made several study trips to Europe and worked for a number of architects such as Auguste Perret and Peter Behrens. During World War I Le Corbusier taught in his alma mater and moved later to Paris.

His most important architectural pieces include Villa Savoye in Poissy (1929-1931), Unité d’Habitation in Marseille (1947-1952), the city of Chandigarh in India (1954) and Notre Dame du Haut in Ronchamp (1955). In furniture design Le Corbusier’s LC4 chaise longue and LC2 armchair and sofa are true icons.
